A great return to RC flying for me. Build was simple, wing covering with tape very effective. Flies great, well the Mini-Vick does, despite my efforts.
Service from Hyperflight was great. Neil is practically on call for help via RC groups.

Mini VickPerfect kit, all included that was necessary. However I added some adjustable joints for the servo push rods. Flies nicely and also surprisingly agile. The foam wing is quite firm and robust. I hope I can try it on a slope as soon as possible!

Usual excellent service from Hyperflight.
Great little kit and really enjoyable to put together.
Used some cheap 3g servos that I had lying around and a 150 mah nimh pack.
I treated the bare tail surfaces with a couple of coats of Sand n Seal, packing tape on the wings, and covered the pod with some black oratrim which sticks OK to the pink foam.
Test glides in the garden look promising, just need lockdown to finish to give it a proper test!

1) service from hyperflight was great. got the kit in 4 days.
2) the mini vick arrived in perfect condition. all parts were cut to perfection. I had spent al lot of time procuring the DSM2 radio and servos with connectors to fit. I ended up using redcom cm421 radio and bluearrow d03030 servos.and 500mA battery to balance. This is a great product combined with the videos showing the build.

finally donefirst-ever build that flies, took it slowly, and more from YouTube videos. I wish I was adviced about the kicker for the CA on the wing halves..am surprised on my first glide toss, flew straight and landed like a feather. Model flies great in smaller parks and in light to heavy wind .. my go to dlg for those quick fix launches .. worth the money

Very simple build, took a few hours from start to finish. Used heavier than recommended setup, at 110g, but flies very well and have had caught a few thermals keeping me afloat for some really good flights!

It actually fliesThis is the first model aircraft I have built in over 40 years and it uses materials and adhesives that are all new to me. I took my time, did quite a few trial runs, especially joining the wing halves, learned as I went and have managed to produce a nice little glider which I flew for the first time today... and it actually flies. Take you time, read the instructions, have a look on youtube and you too can end up with a great little model.
