Request Stock NotificationThe Flite Test Explorer Speed Build Kit with Maker Foam (FLT1106) is a versatile foam airframe designed to help pilots learn, experiment and progress. Its modular layout allows the motor, wings, tail and nose to be swapped or reconfigured, so you can explore how each change affects flight performance. The kit includes two wings: a 3‑channel trainer wing for easy, stable flying and a sport wing for faster 4‑channel operation—ideal as your skills grow or for FPV-oriented setups.
Maker Foam elevates durability and finish quality, while the white, translucent material is easy to paint, decal or even illuminate from within. Suggested compatibility includes Flite Test B and C motor packs (C pack with a 9x6 propeller) for setups ranging from gentle trainer to capable sport/FPV platform.

The FT Explorer carries all the simple lines, features, and characteristics that you will find with many of the most common and successful trainers The difference is that the motor, wings, tail section, and nose can all be swapped, reconfigured, or changed out to allow you to discover the performance changes of a new design. Our hope is that the community will design, learn, and share what they have created, so that others can learn and grow. The FT Explorer comes with 2 wings: one for 3 channel flight and a sport wing for faster 4 channel operation. Both the B and C motor packs (c packs need 9x6 propeller) can be used on the FT Explorer to go from a light and slow trainer to a strong performing FPV platform or sport trainer.
