Overview

In 2008, a brilliant RC hobbyist in Solingen, Germany made a pioneering breakthrough and developed a revolutionary method to propel and control un-tethered kites. Instead of moving control surfaces, he moved the actual direction of thrust. By developing an elegant combination of a lightweight brushless motor, modern RC servos and a Cardanic gimbal system, he solved all problems of propulsion and control in one bold stroke. With a high thrust electric motor mounted inside a controllable gimbal, the system achieves full three axis control by augmenting thrust up, down, left , right, or in any combination. Pitch, yaw, roll and forward speed are all achieved by the combination of up-down and left-right thrust positioning along with proportional speed control of the brushless motor. Since the thrust on the propulsion unit is totally controlled in the way of both magnitude and direction, the propulsion assembly was christened a Vector Thrust Control Unit.

The Canard is an excellent introduction into the world of full three-axis Vector Power. Combining the innovation of Premier's proprietary gimbal thrust system with the graceful stability of the Canard's large wingspan, this spectacular flying machine will turn heads as fast as it turns corners at your favorite flying field. A complete joy to fly, the Canard features smooth and slow flight with the ability to turn almost within its own length! No need for heavy landing gear or smooth runways, the Canard is able to rise off of any surface with a quick blast of vector engaged downward thrust. With its slow movement and large sail area, the Canard is also a thrill to fly inside any neighborhood gym.

Kite only and kite case. Includes all pre-installed propulsion fittings. Just add Vector Power Package.
