The Flite Test Guinea Pig is the perfect platform to carry out the craziest experiments in the air. While it can carry a hefty payload, which can be dropped out the rear hatch, it can also be set up to carry out extreme aerobatic maneuvers. Use differential thrust to perform amazing 3d maneuvers such as harriers and knife edge. Tone down your controls and the Guinea behaves like a predictable trainer plane and is the perfect first time twin engined plane.

NOTE: Please review the build videos before removing any paper backing from the foam! Certain videos show white foam board, which is no longer produced. It has been replaced with water-resistant foam board which is brown in color.

Fantastic! What a wonderful model to build and fly. It takes off in a few feet, flies as smooth as silk and is easy to land nice and slow. My model has differential thrust and it's worth the extra effort to do this as it makes for great aerobatics and easy ground handling.

Shipping to Australia was quick and it was well packed.

Keep up the GREAT work lads :)

This plane is amazing. it's fun to build and to fly but the cockpit part of the nose is cut wrong, it came with a part of the cockpit sliced of. It's easy to repair but still something to look out for.

It was an amazing build I have not gotten the opportunity to fly it yet, but this is not a trainer plane which is something I failed to recognize I also highly recommend getting the crafty kit mainly because of the hot glue gun because the wing spar is very long and can cause parts to bond and other parts to not bond as well as pay close attention to the tail because if you're not careful it can warp. overall it was an amazing experience. (please ignore grammatical errors I'm very sorry about them if there are any)
