Overview

After receiving great feedback on the Matrix 2.2, Pilot-RC decided to develop the Big Matrix for a new era. This innovative sport jet/3D jet is designed to combine exceptional sport jet capabilities with unbeatable 3D performance. We applied everything Pilot-RC learned from the Matrix, spending over a year in collaboration with one of the world's top pilots to take Matrix performance to the next level. Pilot-RC are proud to say this is the best large sport jet they've ever created, offering ultimate flying characteristics for both precise aerobatics and 3D maneuvers.

Pilot-RC upgraded the wing design, expanding it from 2.2 to 2.8 meters, and added new features such as ailerons with tip aileron counterbalances to enhance roll authority, allowing for one aileron servo per wing. The flaps can also function as ailerons for full axial rolls.

The Matrix's design and airframe shape come from the renowned designer Mirco Pecorari of Aircraftstudiodesign, embodying the sleek, charismatic style of high-performance hypercars.

Features

• Extremely lightweight full composite construction especially designed for outstanding sport flight with 3D performance
• Painted outside the mold so no seam lines
• Ultra light weight landing gear special build for Matrix 2.8m
• Specially designed easy access to turbine for speedy installation
• Field setup can be done in seconds, thanks to the quick releases on the wings without the need for any tools.
• The single elevator clamp from the top, only a few turns to tight/loose the bolt then you can install/take out the stabiliser.
• Flap can use as aileron to make very axial rolling performance with counter balance on tip aileron allow to use only 1 servo per aileron
• Removable wing and stabilizer and vertical fin for easy transport
• Removable two piece of fuselage for easy transport, only four bolt to lock two piece fuselage. tail pipe is fixed on the back section of fuselage. front fuselage is 1927mm, back fuselage is 875mm
• The equipment installation board make the electronic items with very clear installation. Most of the wire can be hidened.
• Pre-install tube for the stab/rudder extension wire, easy to install.
• Vector tail pipe for 3D flight.
