Bonita si que es pero rápida la verdad no la veo ......... al margen del video de la Amokka he visto planks con mejores prestaciones que la Petoma por una fracción de su precio, otra cosa es su rendimiento como F3B que ahí si se vé para lo que realmente fué diseñada porque en bajada todo corre.
Ya nos contarás como resulta.

"Dear plank “fans,”
Finally I was able to maiden my Amokka plank which took several years in designing, CAD work and some moulding.
It had its maiden flight in very strong winds (14m/s) and about 60 degrees off the ridge. But anyway it punished all the people who think that planks are hypercritical. All in all it was very uneventful. The Amokka (span: 1,96m, several airfoils along the span) was very precise to fly and flew where you pointed it. There was actually not one critical situation during the whole afternoon, except when I tried the butterfly, which made the plane dive quite dramatically. Well there has to be some ratings to be adjusted.
It behaved so nicely, that I was almost thinking to raise the taper ratio next time!!!
Speed was good, but difficult to judge, as there was no comparison. Energy retention was astonishing, much better than what I have earlier experienced from other planks. The only thing which could be more aggressive was the F3F turn. Usually I was amazed how planks were able to do this. Amokka did it smoothly, but there was not enough “bang” in the corners. On the other hand, the CG was on the safe side and I changed it only once, which made the turns already much better, so there is hope."
Dadas las fechas entre lo publicado por Wick (09/2008) y las pruebas del Pitbull Team con la Petoma, el trabajo en conjunto que han hecho anteriormente Wick y el Pitbull Team, la similitud del fuselaje me atrevería a decir que la Petoma es una versión de la Amokka con envergadura aumentada.

Realmente no hace mucho más que otras alas solo que los del Pitbull Team estiman que sus modelos son "exclusivos" y una serie "elite" en el mercado (ver al final de la página
http://www.pitbull-team.de/News.html) .........
"The release date and price for petoma-wk have been announced:
The aircraft will be available from January 2009 and € 702.10 (net 590, - €) cost.
We know that this is not! A bargain price ...
We do not want even the "cheap - cheap - the cheapest" - are thrown into a pot party.
The models of the Pit Bull team will be an exclusive, but also represent an elite series on the market.
(more pilots are being planned - it soon on our website).
The distribution is

A estos hay que comprarlos por lo que valen y venderlos por lo que dicen que valen
