The brief

Electra’s EL-2 Goldfinch is a technology demonstrator for hybrid-electric aircraft capable of very short takeoffs and landings. We turned that distinctive aircraft into a kit, keeping the engineering idea visible in the model. Its row of eight propellers gives the build a clear connection to the real Goldfinch.

We used 493 original LEGO® elements to translate the yellow aircraft into a miniature. The construction follows its recognizable airframe, with the propellers distributed across the wing. As the model takes shape, that unusual arrangement becomes something the builder can examine from every side.

A custom instruction booklet guides the build and gives the aircraft its full EL-2 Goldfinch name. The finished model offers a physical way to introduce Electra’s approach to aviation: a small aircraft people can assemble and display, with the defining feature of the full-size demonstrator at its center.
