This is an all balsa and poplar plywood build up plane with clear
front windows. The kit features laser cut interlocking parts and
includes all the balsa and plywood necessary to complete the model.
Plans are full size CAD drawn on two sheets, showing all the parts in
full size. The building manual with photos and sketches will guide you
through the construction process. You would have to acquire the
hardware, landing gear, motors, electronics and the usual supplies to
complete the kit.
The plane is easy to fly and very stable. It flies slow and therefore
is suited for scale like flying. Twins are especially well suited for
electric power since the motors will always turn at practically the
same RPM with little chance of one motor quitting on you. The
fuselage is made from laser cut formers and 1/4" balsa sticks. The
wing is conventional flat bottom with leading and trailing edge
sheeting. It flies off short grass with the electric power
configuration. A large frontal hatch allows for easy battery access.
