MICRO-JET Multiplex/Hitec

摘要

Multiplex continues to round-out their lineup of exciting park flyers, this time with the introduction of the Micro-Jet. This small and fast park flyer is designed for intermediate to advanced fliers. It features a one-piece fuselage/wing with dual vertical fins all made from a lightweight material called Elapor, which appears similar to a common type of foam, but is much more durable and robust. The Micro-Jet should appeal to enthusiasts who wish for more speed and maneuverability than what is offered from typical park flyers. The Micro Jet is packaged in an unusual, but compact semi-triangular shaped box with dimensions of 23-1/2″ x 28″ x 3-1/2″. It's a beautiful, full color box with the slogan, "If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen," On the box, a color drawing of a Micro-Jet is depicted as quickly soaring past desert sand dunes. Upon opening the box, all items were found to be in excellent condition. One note here is that this is the second Micro-Jet to be delivered for this review. Unfortunately, something very heavy was rolled over the first package and it was totally crushed in the delivery process, resulting in the kit contents being completely destroyed. (So much for careful handling!)
