The Aerotique captures the look of aviation in it's infancy. It's simple to build flat on the building board, easy to fly, and always attracts attention at the field. Take offs and landings are a breeze, and it will fly slow and predictable if you like, or run through basic aerobatics with ease. All this while powered by an economical 25 size glow engine or electric equivalent.

To make building of the curved spruce tail pieces easy we have included some MDF formers which you can bend the spruce around for laminating. Simply soak the spruce, bend it around the formers and cable-tie it in place until dry. Then remove it and apply aliphatic glue and tie it back around the formers until dry. You will be rewarded with a very strong and good looking part.
