The SONIC-liner consists of a
small number of components, and can be assembled rapidly. It looks utterly
extraordinary in the air, but its flying characteristics are sweet-natured
in the extreme. In short, it is a delightful model to fly. The machine is
controlled using canard elevators and separate ailerons. The power system
consists of two 400-size motors in a pusher configuration. The outboard
wing panels and canards are removable for ease of transport, and the model
can be transported easily on the back seat or in the boot of even quite
small vehicles. It can even be packed in its original carton if the fins
are also removed. Access to the aileron servos and power system is through
the removable fin / motor fairing. The SONIC-liner is designed for
hand-launching and belly-landing. This ensures that the model is highly
realistic in flight, and landings on grass surfaces are perfectly safe.
However, the instructions also include information on making an
undercarriage or take-off dolly if you have access to a smooth, hard
landing strip.
