Taipan Slope Combat Wing

Model Flight taipan 4 epp combat wing slope soarer. The Model Flight taipan 4 epp combat wing slope soarer is designed for 2 channel radio control (rc) and is ideal for slope combat.


Australia's best selling Slope Combat model is now even better. More maneuverable than the Taipan II or III and able to handle stronger and lighter winds. Now made of 100% EPP foam to handle the rigors of the sports flyer and the toughest of combat bouts. With a new thinner airfoil, more sweep and simpler construction this is a big step forward in EPP combat models!

About EPP Foamies
 
EPP (Expanded Polypropylene) foam is a fairly recent innovation that has revolutionized the slope soaring segment of our hobby and is rapidly finding applications to the mainstream R/C community.  Slope combat enthusiasts are making scale warbirds out of this material for full contact combat. These planes are flown in 30+ mph ridge lift and are designed to ram into each other at high speed and crash to the ground with no damage. EPP foam doesn't dent or break. It has a "spongy" quality to it, so on impact it compresses and pops back to shape. I have nose dived my Tornado II straight into the ground during "rough landings" only to have it bounce about 3 feet in the air and come to rest upside down.  The only damage was some grass stains on the tape covering.  Having this kind of crash resistance is truly liberating.
