This listing is for the Quick Build version of the Carbon Falcon.

We complete the frame for you. All frame building steps are completed and servos are centered and fully installed. The motor propeller and ESC are also included. You only need to provide a battery (2s 800-100mAh) and your choice of receiver.

Spare parts and accessories can be found here.

Aloft Hobbies is proud to produce the new Carbon Falcon in house. The Falcon is a fun, unique R/C flying wing utilizing wing warping for control and is highly portable when rolled up like a kite.

We've taken the original Carbon Falcon design from Ken at Ace Sim RC and reinvigorated it with modern R/C components, modern manufacturing and new materials and a few tweaks to improve flight dynamics. All of this and a flying weight below the FAA's 250 gram limit!

Check out this video review from RC groups.

The lightweight and robust frame is mostly made from carbon fiber, that supports a colorful, high strength rip-stop fabric sail. The airfoil shape is provided by specially designed ply battens that don't lose their shape. The fabric we utilize is an advanced material designed in the USA for sailboat spinnakers. The fabric and the frame design combines to make a VERY durable aircraft. 

As for flight characteristics, they're great and very forgiving for both new pilots and advanced pilots alike. Lazily float around at walking pace or open up the throttle and zip around performing aerobatics. Loops, rolls, hammerheads and even inverted flight are all possible and rewarding. Thermal shenanigans or slope soaring in smooth lift are also options.

The Carbon Falcon is an excellent park flyer. If you are like us, you probably do not hand catch your models. The Falcon will probably be your exception, this plane is EASY to hand catch. The wing reflex provides excellent low speed handling making her a dream to catch. 

 The Carbon Falcon is highly portable and ready to travel. Ever disassemble a kite? it's about the same and takes just a minute or two to roll up for storage and set back up for flying fun. When rolled the plane is a traveling dream! As Ken likes to say, it's the only plane you can carry in your pants pocket. (We suggest the 3x3x25 inch box we ship the model in.)

We designed the plane around a specific servo, so we include those in every kit. We suggest the Carbon Falcon is built with our recommended power package. The Emax motor is a great match for this airframe. This is an overbuilt motor and we are not working it hard at all. It should last the life of the model with ease. We even designed skids into the motor mount to protect the motor. A 2S 800 or 1000 mah lipo is the minimum suggested battery, anything lighter will require adding additional nose weight to meet CG. 

We think the Carbon Falcon is so pretty that we include a custom wall mount so you can proudly display your model when you aren't out flying her! (Optional table mount available.)

The Carbon Falcon makes a great night flier! Check out the optional night LED set.
