I don't normally do this... But I bought a foamie from HK! :)

A small foam flying wing, that does not look too bad in my opinion.
Light, with ballast option, I kept the winglets removables to be able to carry it with me when I go on holidays.

Building time of about 5 minutes, good for a change!

So now, I have an Alula, and a Libelle, not too sure of the point of having this one on top, but my excuse is that it just open my flying options on a no wind day (That's my excuse, and I'll stick to it!  :lol: )
