TINY, yet MIGHTY: Revolutionary Carbon Fiber Micro EDF Sport Jet

I love showcasing unique projects and this is something that I think takes the cake from the EDF jet jam! Designed and built by my friend Bret Becker and nicknamed the "FireFly", the intricate craftsmanship and engineering prowess behind this remarkable little model is quite incredible. It is based on the JMP Firebird sport jet design only at a fraction of the size! So, join me as Bret talks about the design and layup process he went through to create this cutting-edge carbon fiber UMX jet and enjoy a beautiful flight showcasing the excellent flight performance. If only every UMX jet could be this cool! 🤣
