What was required of the Saltiga Cuddler, a model supervised by Ryota Segawa , was a long flight distance and a swimming action that would allow it to swim steadily even in tough conditions.
The tail was narrowed down to greatly reduce air resistance, and the shape allowed for a stable flying posture that would not lose balance even in strong headwinds or crosswinds, creating a great advantage in flight distance.
In addition, a counterweight was installed on the back, and attention was paid to the posture at which it floats up, adjusting it so that it floats up in the same posture even when the water surface is rough, allowing it to dive underwater regardless of the water surface conditions. The action pursued was a three-dimensional spiral S-shaped action, with the entire body moving widely to attract fish from a wide range.

■ Square eye for high straight-line performance and reduced input errors

A square eye with a pointed tip is used to ensure consistent input, allowing for more repeatable jerks.

■Back counterweight for stable standing posture and smooth diving action

A thin, wide counterweight is placed on the back. This stabilizes the posture when floating up and makes the rising smooth. This allows for diving regardless of the surface conditions.

■Slim tail shape narrowed to the limit of strength

The slim tail shape is as narrow as possible while still maintaining its strength. The reduced air resistance results in a stable flight posture and a large increase in flight distance.
