PLANEPRINT APEX

The PLANEPRINT APEX is a fully 3D printable RC sports EDF jet designed by René Marschall. It features a wingspan of 1150 mm and a flight weight of 2450 grams, making it suitable for pilots seeking serious aerobatic performance. The model is engineered for ease of building and flying, with a focus on technical maturity and practical design details.

This jet offers flexibility with the option to use either a 70 mm or 80 mm EDF unit, allowing pilots to tune their power setup for different flying styles. Its relaxed wing loading of 84 g/dm² ensures smooth and predictable handling, emphasizing aerobatics over speed.

Features:

• Single centerline slotted flap controlled by one servo for simplified build and increased lift.
• Integrated inner wing sections with retractable main landing gear for structural integrity and easy transport.
• Compatibility with 70 mm or 80 mm EDF units with optimized thrust tubes and interchangeable nozzles.
• Carbon-reinforced structure with full-length 6 mm carbon tubes in the fuselage and 10 mm tubes in the wings for strength.
• Precise and fail-safe control linkages using bent steel wire pushrods without clevises or plastic parts.
