The Viper Jet MKII is
a jet aircraft designed and produced by Viper Aircraft Corporation in kit form
for homebuilding. It is a conventional, low-wing monoplane with swept wings and
tail and two seats in tandem under a bubble canopy. The jet intakes are located
at the sides of the fuselage and the tricycle undercarriage is retractable.
Construction throughout is of composite materials. In 2008, Viper Aircraft
announced an enlarged, turbofan-powered follow-on design as the Viper Aircraft
FanJet. The company has also proposed a military trainer version of the Viper
Jet, as well as a UAV version. The Viper Jet MKII is consequently designed as a
very lightweight composite and balsa/ply built-up structure, with features
similar to a world class F3A-Pattern plane. Lightest lay-ups, perfectly
engineered aerodynamics and structural reinforcements only where they are needed;
this model is perfectly suited for electric ducted fan flying. The pre-installed
fiberglass intake ducting is engineered for efficiency and pure performance,
making this aircraft capable of extreme speeds with just stock Sapac MB1 motor
and Sapac EDF system. ARF lets you use the provided fixed landing gear system,
but it is also designed for the optional Sapac RZ180 pneumatic retract system
with scale set of spring loaded struts. The Viper comes with a full hardware
package and illustrated instruction manual.
The Viper Jet is a high-performance ducted fan model with an incredibly sleek
design, a real rocket ship in the making!
