The Twisted Hobbies Super Lite Series of indoor R/C aircraft are the staple for the Litespeed Airshow aerobatic demonstrations. These 3 aircraft are unique and an intricate part of our presentation. They all have a blend of performance and durability that is demanded by the sometimes very tight gymnasium venues and the crazy stunts that we perform. These aircraft also help communicate the visual language of our sponsors colors and logos. Learn more below!!

The Red Barron (Crack Fokker)
The Litespeed Airshow uses “Snoopy vs. the Red Baron” in our World War 1 fighter aircraft demo segment. The Twisted Hobbies Crack Camel and Crack Fokker DR1 Tri-Plane inspired me to add this to our show. This story was originally inspired by the comic strip “Peanuts” by Charles Schulz, which featured Snoopy imagining himself in the role of a World War I airman fighting the Red Baron. Its a fun way to demonstrate the advancement of early airplane designs that followed shortly after the Wright Brothers invention really took off.
