Velociraptor Canard Foamie Parkflyer, aka Long EZE

Right after the successful Cozy project, i decided to embark on a more sleeker-looking canard plane, Burt Rhutan's Long EZE had a heavy influence in my designing this Velocirpator, same wing shape as the Long EZE but with more swept-back wingtips and cool-looking sweeping canards up front. She has a narrower fuselage as compared to the Cozy, and also slightly smaller wingspan. As a result it became a much lighter plane than the Cozy and rolled a lot faster. Both have the same flight charateristics.

Velociraptor's maiden flight day, brought out the Cozy for size comparison.

Heave-Ho!!!

Velociraptor about to roll...

Simply beautiful lines...

Sleek and efficient-looking bird...

Soft and gentle touch-down, sweet maiden flight :)

Inverted flight is stable, similar to upright flight.

Such a futuristic and unique-looking aircraft, ahead of it's times.

Thanks Rajoo for video taping.
