STRIX ALATUS

Introducing the STRIX ALATUS! After a year of testing and prototyping, we are proud to be able to finally bring this ultra fast and simple to build plane to you! Are you tired of spending the time and hassle to cover your wings with laminate only to crash it later? So were we! The ALATUS is made from high density, molded EPO foam. On top of that, we have used an 8mm, square spar as well as additional spars in front and behind. All of this means that you can spend more time in the air than with your covering iron and still have an ultra stiff and responsive wing. 

Crash your wing? No problem! The ALATUS can change a broken wing in about 30 seconds. Simply pop the canopy off, unplug the servo from your receiver, and slide out the damaged wing.
