What is a
Velox?
The Velox
Revolution is a full-scale aerobatic aircraft produced by Charlie Wolff at
Velox Aviation. It was among the first piston-engine aerobatic designs to be
produced from a majority of composite airframe parts. The Velox has been in
production since the mid-1990’s, and as of 2017, Charlie had completed 10
copies, in both Revolution I (single-place cockpit) and II (dual cockpit)
versions.
The Velox is an interesting design subject for an aerobatic model because it’s “right” in the full-scale design, (mid-low wing, low stab, low thrust line) and does not have to be molested much to optimize it as a model.
The 52”
Starting
from this great base, the 52” version is a stellar performer. Sporting huge
tail surfaces, the Velox slots into the 52” lineup as the hooligan airplane.
Chris and I, talking about how to describe its mission, decided on “classic 3D
flying” as the best descriptor. The Velox covers all the 3D bases with low
coupling at high rudder throws, for super low and slow HAKE passes and tight
spins, and easy in-your-face hover and torque-roll.
The Velox
includes SFG’s and I fly with them on, as there’s no downside to them. They
make the big rudder seem even bigger and damp out any unwanted roll motion,
especially in a breeze. A fun note, the full-scale Velox actually has an option
for SFG’s, so they’re a scale feature.
Construction
and Assembly
The Velox
builds in the same easy, confidence-inspiring sequence as our other 52” designs,
with the self-centering horizontal stab system. All the hardware is the
tested-and-true system from our other 52” aircraft, and it uses the same
equipment, based around the awesome XPWR 3910 motor.
The Velox
is available in two genuine Oracover schemes with a high-contrast bottom
surface design for easy and quick orientation.
