Maripi is easy to fly airplane designed for acrobatics training and simply having fun in the air.
The wings have couple important improvements over Kodo. Most significant change is new leading edge design. Thanks to that the airfoil shape is more exact. The airflow is laminar on bigger part of the wing and the plane behaves more true to the aerodynamic simulations.
The wing is also lighter due to the thinner mesh with bigger spacing.
The fuselage is also a new design to make sure it is printable on wide range of 3D printers and as light as possible.

This model airplane is a trainer, an evolution of the project we made some time ago, the Joytrainer, that airplane was big and cool, it was based on the Simple Storch by Flitetest, some people...
