Description
TH 35" EPP Crack Camel
The Crack Camel combines classic WWI biplane styling with durable EPP construction and the extreme aerobatic performance expected from the Crack Series. It is equally comfortable making slow, controlled flybys or transitioning into hovering, knife-edge flight, rolling maneuvers, and aggressive 3D aerobatics.
Extensive carbon-fiber reinforcement creates a lightweight and rigid airframe, while the four-servo control system provides the precision and authority needed throughout its wide speed range.

Followup
Followup to my previous review: The build was a good bit more complicated that most of their monoplanes, but I completed assembly in around 8 hours. It was a fun build, and as an old engineer, I can really appreciate the clever engineering that went into this plane. With all of the ultralight CF bracing, the entire airframe is very stiff, which makes is fly so great. They hit a home run with this plane, and everyone should own one or more of these WWI biplanes.

Ok, this plane is a HOOT! With a 3S 450 battery, mine weighs 8.0 oz on a fish scale. Takeoff run is about 4" on grass, becoming airborne at about 2 mph. It truly floats, yet is a rocket with the suggested power system. 3D is insane, and I look forward to doing vertical knife-edge figure 8's. I am in LOVE with this plane!

Crack Camel
The build is little more complex than the other TW models I’ve built, but was fun. The foam is thinner than other models as well, which makes it feel somewhat flimsy when transporting and handling it. That being said, this thing flies amazing. It flies so slow into a light head wind that I’ve plucked it out of the air on a fly by. It can fly super scale, or all out wild 3d. Added a small tail wheel to mine, something I wish the kit included, but I still give it 5 stars.

TH 35 Crack Camel
Received in excellent condition.Online instructions are very-clear and easy to follow. The planes design with all the carbon fiber stunts and supports makes for a very light and stif air frame.This little plane looks amassing in the sky and is joy to fly.I love it!
