What is the best FPV airplane I have, had, or was in contact with? The answer is pretty simple. It’s my Ritewing Mini Drak. Looks great, flies even better. Mini Drak might not be cheap, but there a reason why so many pilots love this model.

A bit-O-Waggle, but very good. I like the Volantex Ranger1600, 2000, 2400. Smooth, efficient, cheap, pretty tough, snap on wings, carries bunch of mah, fits in my trunk. Twin or pusher configuration. A bit of adverse yaw that is tamed by an effective rudder. Wide speed range.
Oh that yaw tho!
Is thzat wobbliness and bounciness wind or just par for the course with a flying wing. Also which is more fun to fly, this ir your 7″ quad? I want to eventually get a LR wing as I already have the DJI goggles and Cross setup on the ground.
The durability is no joke, particularly if you laminate the airframe or use E6000 to seal the fuselage. I crashed mine into the side of a mountain and the air frame had only minor damage. Some folks don’t like the coroplast, but I consider these to be expendable. They handle crashes much better than balsa but are easily replaced when they do wear out. They are also a lot lighter than other options.
Interesting there is yaw waggle, I would not have expected that on such a pointy premium plane… (the Dart XL-E does not yaw waggle)
I agree its the coolest wing out there but its not the most convenient due to the landing distance requirements.
HI PAWEL, I build the same , but not again fly it, so what is your CG and Ailerons / pitch throws please?
Unfortunately I don’t think the Mini Drak is available for purchase, at least not for shipment to the USA that I can find.
Pawal, you certainly have great taste in model airplanes! In all, I have seven Ritewing Draks of all sizes and states of build, repair, disrepair and one beyond hope of ever being repaired, lol. I have two large Draks, three mini Draks (1 in box, 1 built and 1 lost somewhere in Southeast Texas?) and two nano’s (1 in box, 1 totaled in a crashfire). I like to think I’m helping put Chris Klick’s kids through college. Lately, I haven’t flown much, but your video is very inspiring, so maybe this weekend I can get another Drak in the air and see if I can also bring it home again… Cheers!
How is it called that experimental little board solving Horizon Drift?
footage is a bit wobbly aint it!!?
