The LongEZ Speed Build Kit has been discontinued. A larger, more durable version with an improved powered flight experience will be available in 2021. If you would like to scratch build this plane with Maker Foam (FLT-2104), the plans will remain available on the Flite Test Forum.
The Flite Test LongEZ is a great "bank and yank" semi scale DIY electric airplane kit. Simplicity was the theme of this design and our hopes are that it can be built and flying in no time! One motor, an ESC, and two servos are all you need to get the Long EZ in the air. Powered with the power pack A it can run off of a 2s battery for more beginner friendly characteristics, or use a 3s to make it a ballistic speed plane! The original Long EZ is an icon of experimental aviation and this model is no different.
