A finely tuned
machine.

We are
pretty certain that it is the best selling, enclosed engine, sport jet
available. And, for good reason - pilots who own one, spread the word.![]()
Besides being slightly
larger than the original Bandit and having more room inside, and increased fuel
capacity, every structural and control rigging detail that could be improved,
was.![]()
Matt Carrol, a very
experienced jet pilot and engineer by trade who is building the new Super
Bandit offered quite a compliment when he said, "I haven't found anything I
want to change."![]()
After
a test hop at Florida Jets '03 Quique Somenzini, 4-time TOC winner, had very
favorable comments about how perfect an aerobatic machine the Super Bandit
is.

Thousands have enjoyed
watching the perfect combination of man and machine when David Shulman flies
the "Black Beauty".![]()
The
on-the-deck, knife to knife (and straight as an arrow) coupled with vertical
snaps to stall turn recovery at show center are just part of his inspiring jet
acrobatic routine. Combine David's exceptional piloting skills, with the
precision radio control of a JR 10X and 8411 servos and a finely tuned airframe
powered with a JetCat P-120 turbojet engine, and it all adds up to "Performance
Perfection".
OFF THE SHELF COMPONENTS
![]()
Sometimes, when you see such a highly tuned machine, well - its all
custom made. Not so here, every component of the black Super Bandit that David
flies is standard equipment, made everyday by BVM, JR and
JetCat.
Balsa or
all Composite
you have a choice
![]()
The
laser cut, built-up wings and tails of the Balsa Super Bandit, save you money
and offer a lighter wing loading because the wing is slightly larger (an extra
40 sq in) and the surfaces are a bit lighter.![]()
The all composite Super Bandit, of course,
assembles faster and involves less finishing effort. For those who wish to push
the high "G", high speed extremes of the performance spectrum, the composite
version was designed for you.![]()
If you were at Florida Jets, you saw what we are bragging
about - if you weren't, just ask someone who was and then give David or Patty a
call to order your Super Bandit - the delivery time is 2-4 weeks.
