The Pentathlon Evolution as the name implies comes
from the Pentathlon (see pics in the "Friends" gallery).
Small changes in several key areas, and completely
reworked structurally within the fuselage, it is ready for
the 2011' F3A sequences. Click on the picture for more
details and kit pricing.
The Insight Squared (also known as V4) is a 2 meter, F3A type model aircraft that is
simplistic in design, yet capable of flying the most advanced sequences. The construction is
straightforward and light. The first prototype was flown on a YS140sport with a weight of
9-3/4lbs. This aircraft has finished in the top three in Intermediate and Advanced, as well
as 12th place in Masters at the US National Championships. Plans and short kits are available.

This is the Nat Penton Voodoo. The ONE and ONLY pattern plane that was designed and refined
with function as the goal...not form. It's ultra low weight and neutral stability offer a one of a
kind flight envelope that has to be flown to appreciate. The yellow version seen below is
powered with a YS110 at a weight of 8-1/4lbs. This model has been flown in FAI and Masters
with exceptional results. An electric version is flying at 9lbs. with unbelievable performance
using a Plettenburg outrunner. This makes plane can even 3D with the best of them. Plans and
cores are available.

Here it is, the original Insight. Much different in shape and layout than the final version,
but still a fair pattern bird. The wing is conservative in taper and thickness, making it as
docile as a Kaos. The force arrangement was exceptional for Sportsman and Intermediate
classes, but no knife edge loops without a rudder modification. Makes a nice entry
project and the price is right, email us for a free set of full size plans in PDF format.
