Crankopter FF3 (Flitter-Flap 3)
[revealed: March 25, 2008]
The most versatile and manoeuvrable of the Flitter-Flaps to date. Jai-Jai gyro stabilizers have finally been perfected in this model, though the original prototype (FFzero) remains unparalleled in reverse-quarter-spin-flicks.
Powered by a self-winding ‘crank’ engine ingeniously adapted to harness the momentum of the main rotor blade.
Rumours about the FF4 claim that an unmanned test vehicle was able to successfully navigate a complete triple-rip-drop-spin only a hair’s width above the ground.
