"Justin, you did it! This MiniBOP ROCKS."

MiniBOP

30-inch span 280-powered EPP parkflyer with attitude. 
Designed by Justin Ammon

The Mini Bird of Prey (MiniBOP)

ONLY
$64.95 + S&H
Discontinued

Introducing the MiniBOP. The MiniBOP is one of the most intriguing parkflyer available. The performance envelope ranges from mild to insane, all on the stock airframe. Use the recommended stock motor/battery setup for fun and lively 280 sized parkflyer performance. But, replace that stock motor and battery system with a high-powered brushless motor system like the direct drive Hacker B20-26L and 3 Thunder Power 2100mA LiPo battery cells, and hang on for a ride that will astonish you and all of your flying buddies.

Properly built, the MiniBOP is a joy to fly with traits that made its big brother, The "Bird of Prey" such a hit. Gentle stalls, and responsive low speed handling, combined with the ability to generate amazing speed for a 280 powered 30-inch wing make the MiniBOP unique. The ability to upgrade performance without upgrading the airframe makes the MiniBOP able to meet the needs and desires of most any pilot.

No one will ever mistake your MiniBOP for another aircraft, thanks to the unusual and aggressive forward swept wing design. This forward swept design is what allows the MiniBOP to perform in a wide flight envelope effectively.
