Flying through gates is fun, but flying through something that's flying is even better! The Super Circle Plane is a giant scratch built foam board Annular Wing airplane that took to the sky at the 2015 Flite Fest event.
With the help of the pilots who came out to the 2015 Flite Fest event, the Super Circle Plane was completed and ready for it's maiden.
One of the many group projects at Flite Fest, the Super Circle Plane was a project created to offer a fun mid-air challenge for the pilots at our 2nd Annual Festival of Flight.
It was a blast to see so many people involved with the Giant Circle-Winged RC Airplane as well as all of the pilots who joined in on the fun and attempted to go through the ringed wing.
Along with all of the pilots who joined in on the fun, there were also many of you who filmed some of the crazy stuff like this at the event.
Be sure to share some of your experiences and upload your videos and tag them Flite Fest 2015!
We'd like to thank everyone who helped with this Super Circle Plane project and the pilots who shared their video footage featured in this episode!

I hope you share this video with all the news organizations. It's so nice to see the creation of such a kid friendly company. Hats off to the hornets nest of attack pilots and hats off to the hyena pack who left the field with no chunk left un-torn.

First 20 seconds is boring showmanship stuff.

It could far more than hold the wings shape and protecting the edges from strikes, too. Since the conduit pieces slide together it could make the wing modular, speeding repairs, increasing portability, and decreasing setup and take down time. And could run the wiring through it to protect it, putting disconnects at the end of each piece, mounting leds, EL wire, etc directly to the conduit. Each piece of conduit could be a self contained section with a motor, and lighting.
