Modelair-tech's oddball
Model Airplane News, Nov 1999 by Chianelli, Chris
Check out this little creature. It's the newest brainchild of Tom Hunt and Modelair-Tech. The "Elipstik," as they call it, needs three channels for aileron, elevator and motor, and with a 7-cell 350mAh pack and MAT GD-280 3:1 geared motor, it can fly for up to 10 minutes.
Hook up a MAT M-50 400-size motor with a Gunther 7x6 prop and a 6-cell 500mAh, and this baby will really cook. For $53.95 (plus S&H), you can pick up this kit with the GD-280 and prop and still have some cash left over for lunch. Modelair-Tech, PO. Box 1467, Lake Grove, NY 11755-0898; (516) 981-0372.
