E-Flite Tensor 4D

 
 

Designed by Aerodynamicist and e TOC champion, George Hicks

E-Flite Tensor 4D ARF

Discontinued

 

When three dimensions just aren't enough, experienced pilots can turn to E-Flite's new Tensor 4D ARF, the exciting foamy that won the first Electric Tournament of Champions earlier this year. Thanks to its revolutionary design by top-level unlimited aerobatic ace and 2004 eTOC champion George Hicks, using Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), the Tensor provides extreme 3D performance both indoor and out.

Key to the Tensor are its side force generators, this additional side area has a much higher aspect ratio than the fuselage, allowing it to generate lift at low angles of sideslip. From a pilot's point of view, this means that less rudder deflection is required in rolling maneuvers, and knife-edge flight is slow and easy to control.

Extensive carbon fiber wing supports stabilize the structure and make it extraordinarily strong, yet extremely light-weight.

The E-Flite Tensor is constructed from painted laser-cut flat foam and assembles quickly and easily in just a few hours.
