The NEW Fusion V2 Has Arrived!

When the Fusion first came onto the market in 2004, the model soon became popular for its perfect flight characteristics as a trainer, sport flyer and full combat aircraft.

Over the last 6 years, technology has changed and years of slope soaring has all led to the new design of the Fusion V2. Inspired by the ultimate 60 inch slope soarer. It was necessary to re-build the 51 inch Fusion before a 60 version could be developed.

The Fusion V2 is a completely re-designed aircraft. The process started with the newly developed RW03 airfoil section.
The RW03 was developed by a local slope/DS pilot, based on the RG14-15 foil, the airfoil was extremely modified using wind tunnel testing. Comparisons were established that showed the RW03 out performed all of the main airfoils in its field. Although it wasn't until the first test flight that the truth behind this new airfoil was known. The New Fusion V2 will fly in lighter winds with increased performance and performance has nearly doubled from the previous E374. The aircraft is neutrally stable, and has all the right tendencies in the hands of a novice.

In addition to the revolutionary new airfoil, the ailerons have been hinged from the bottom of the wing to reduce induce drag. The whole aircraft has been designed to be more user friendly right from the box.

Development on the Fuselage started with the fuselage been shortened from 770mm to 720mm, this lead to a complete new fuselage shape. It also led to the re-design of the stability layout. The old aircraft was to draggy. Changes have been imbedded in the design, such as the angle or incidence has been changed, along with the angle of decalage on the V tail. The aircrafts wingtips now come pre-radiused by CNC machine.

To improve strength and durability, the fuselage is now made out of 30kg / m3 EPP foam. As well as the 6.1mm Carbon Fibre main spar, the Fusion V2 now incorporates a 6.1mm Carbon Fibre 433mm drag spar on the trailing edge of the wing.

The elevator servo has now been enclosed fully into the fuselage to reduce drag and improve durability during combat.

Once a step in the instruction process, we saw to many square Fusions flying around, the Fusion V2 now comes with the fuselage edges pre-radioused at the Foamworks factory.

The new Fusion is a step forward into future design. At Foamworks we are aiming to bring our customers the best possible aircraft designs we can dream of.
