To infinity and beyond! Today we get to revamp a blast from the past and a new way. For almost a decade, there has been a classic design within the community called the X-41 Delta storm designed by T3chDad. This design has brought the smiles to many faces all over the world with its free plans. Jason Mcquiston has taken inspiration from this design and reimagined it using common FT techniques for building, a simpler front canard, and a reinforced wing. The new FT space fighter can be in the air and as little as one hour even carry extra options like FPV. Join us as we go through the journey of design, testing, and pushing new aircraft to the limits. Also take on another community challenge and fasten three FT space fighters together in an ultimate close formation flight.

The FT space fighter is now available available on our store utilizing our common power packs. If you want to have something that flies, looks crazy, and built quickly. This plane is the plane for you.

  • Going back to the roots of FT, building weird stuff that you can build too! I love it, let's see more of this in the future!
  • @Wikkid2daCOR
    Split the formation midflight? Heck yeah, do it!
  • @OatsGT
    I built my first foam glider at 11 bc of you. I couldn’t afford a remote. A month later I made a MASIVE cargo glider. Edit: thanks for the heart
  • I won’t ever get tired of you guys!!! I’ve been watching almost since day one and I’m a founding member. I had my medallion framed. Just had to write another BIG THANK YOU for so many smiles, laughter and inspiration!!! May God Bless you all…. 🙏
  • @evr4921
    That was too cool!! Nice to see my idea worked so well! It looks fantastic in flight!
  • @markyoder79
    I'll be honest, "3 Planes - 1 Pilot" was awesome, but "1 Plane - 3 Pilots" is what I really want to see. One pilot controls throttle/elevator, one controls right aileron, one controls left aileron.

    SuperFabulantastic !! Gracias FliteTest Saludos Cordiales Desde Latinoamerica..
  • Ok so who wants to see 4, 5, or even 6 of them tie together? Pretty cool guys!
  • @stevenstone4330
    It looks like the aircraft out of the Clent Eastwood movie FIREFOX
  • @sv4stampe
    Here in the UK, we did this with 9 aircraft all together. The famous 9 ship Red Arrow Diamond formation. Flew very well. I'm sure it's on YouTube somewhere.
  • HD Zero is fantastic, my favorite fpv vid system. Amazingly flexible and improving constantly. So happy to see it here. Planes flew way better than I thought, good vid!
  • @DadsRCHangar
    Absolutely brilliant guys. Always pushing aviation out side the box. 👍🏻
  • @CapnBry
    The first time I tested multiple ExpressLRS receivers running from the same transmitter I had you folks in mind and couldn't wait to see what you'd do. So awesome to see you really using that feature to simplify your designs and make inspiring stuff like strapping 3 whole planes together! 😂
  • @johnyoder9466
    Another fantastic video! Can’t wait to build my own spacefighter!
  • @GSpice2411
    How about same configuration, 3 pilots? All three planes still hard mounted to each other but each one is controlled by a different radio so the pilots have to work together.
