L'Horreur is an all Depron/carbon Speed400-powered "FunFly" with a huge wing area and undercambered airfoil for maximum lift. The wing is a single 3mm Depron sheet folded over a few ribs (made of 6mm depron) glued on a 6mm carbon tube spar. The leading edge of the wing is covered with thin and wide tape to prevent breakage when folding the Depron sheet. The fuselage is made of three 6mm depron sheets sandwiching a carbon tube.

This plane can fly incredibly slowly, yet can loop and roll at unreal rates. It can hover, climb vertically and land vertically in 5 knots of head wind.
