The Rookie has been designed to complement your modeling activities for your children or wives, so that they don't get bored with you in the field.
Don't have a model suitable for towing? No problem, the Rookie is easily towed on a folded elastic band
consisting of approx. 5m of 3x1 rubber and 20-30m of Kevlar (silon) thread terminated with a ring (for keys).
And now you've got time to work on your own model, because with the Rokkie model, you don't have to worry about letting
let anyone fly without your supervision. Thanks to its light weight and stability, the risk of damage is minimal.
The possibilities are endless, it's up to your imagination.
But you can also have fun with it, as the Rookie is very sensitive to thermals, and you can "dial in" even very weak thermal "climbs" at ground level.
To make it work, you'll need 2 6g servos (Volta D6M), 1s LiPol approx. 600mAh (Tattu 1s 600), a transmitter with micro-receiver and about 1 hour's construction time.
We recommend the FS i6 transmitter with FS2A receiver. The transmitter is lightweight and fits well in children's hands. This kit costs less than a brand-name receiver.
If you're reluctant to solder the receiver pins yourself, we'll be happy to help on request.
