Either ParkZone version of the ICON comes with the aileron servos installed and all the control surfaces, elevator, rudder, and ailerons pre- hinged (above left). The single carbon fiber tube spar plugs into both wings and carries through the center section in the fuselage wing roots


(above right). A screw through the top of a wing panel passes through the tab seen just behind the spar hole to hold the panel fast. The plastic saddle (below left) for the horizontal stab sits on top of the fin. Two screws through the stab (below right) fasten it to the fin.

This trio of shots show the prototype ICON in the air (top left) and in its aquatic side (above). ICON Aircraft markets the plane as the jet ski of the air which accounts for the jet skis around it, and the decidedly automotive look of its instrument panel (above).
