Default noob planes.

It only takes a couple of hours to fold up the coroplast and CA together one of those SPAD designs. sometimes... they're quicker to get in the air than the ARF kit planes.

The SPAD planes started out as essentially disposable aircraft for R/C combat They needed to be cheap, and quick to assemble due to the high potential for smashing the planes in mid-air collisions or due to the disorientating action in the Combat competitions. (twisting and turning so much.. you lose track of even which plane is yours sometimes. )

A neat siide benefit of the SPADs... they tend to bounce, not break.
