Outstanding manufacturing, parts fit & prefabrication allow the Performance Series Edge 540 to be flight ready in about 20-25 hours. Composite landing gear evenly distributes landing stresses, with a flowing shape that enhances the plane's overall appearance. The rudder & each elevator half utilize independent servos for consistent yaw & pitch control. Servos can be mounted in the fuselage for a lightweight pull-pull setup, or in the tail for a shorter, more direct linkage. Each aileron is controlled by an individual servo. Short, direct linkages make roll control precise, positive, dependable & easy to set up. Large control surfaces & full deflection throws enable the Edge 540 to react quickly to 3D control inputs. Knife edge, high alpha, inverted, upright...these & any other extreme maneuvers you can think of are at your command with this exciting aerobat! The beautifully molded fiberglass cowl & wheel pants are expertly painted to match the trim scheme. Easy to see in any attitude, the Edge 540 trim scheme is simple yet attractive. Sheeted foam core construction gives the turtledeck exceptional strength while adding minimal weight. Three different options are available for powering your Edge 540: glow, gasoline or brushless electric. The highest recommended power option within the specified ranges for each will deliver exceptional 3D flight performance. Manufacturer: Ripmax Model: Great Planes 27% Edge 540 ARTF (A-GPMA1414) ...

Originally designed for the Army Air Corps, the B-25 was known world-wide as the most devastatingly effective medium-range bomber of its time. By the end of the war, nearly 10, 000 B-25s had been manufactured for use as bombers, naval anti-submarine patrols, Air Force reconnaissance platforms, air-to-ground attack/strafing asset & VIP transport. To date, it is the only military aircraft ever named for an individual. Interior detail like this would cost extra on any other ARF, but it’s a built-in bonus on the Top Flite B-25. It’s an “inside look” at wartime design that

Includes::
a deck, bulkhead, 4 ammo boxes — & a pivoting. 50 caliber machine gun. The B-25’s trademark split flaps are included & the functioning gear doors. Working flaps mean shorter takeoff rolls & lower landing speeds — & both are big advantages for small-field flying. If the vertical fins won’t clear your storage rack, there’s a simple answer: remove them. Remove two screws from each fin, & height & depth problems disappear! A scratch-built kit with this level of detail would require hundreds of hours of work, but you can have the Top Flite B-25 ARF mission-ready in a fraction of that time. Finishing is done, the ply engine nacelles are prebuilt & the nose compartment is ready to assemble. • The most detailed B-25 ARF ever — inside & out!•

Includes::
functional fiberglass gear doors, painted replica radial engines, . 50 machine guns & more.• Ready for first flights — or additional scaling out — after only 50 hours of easy assembly.

Exceptional quality. Fine scale detail. Fast, almost ready to fly assembly! Rarely does one model earn all three of those descriptions but the Great Planes Cessna 182 is no ordinary ARF. It only takes 15-20 hours to assemble, but is built even better than most kits. Skillfully designed structures come prebuilt of strong, lightweight woods. The generously sized radio compartment allows easy on board gear installation & scale detailing. Each wing has its own aileron servo – which shortens & simplifies linkages & speeds & strengthens response. The hardware installed is Great Planes' own, & the convenience parts – Hoerner-style wing tips, cowl, tail cone & wheel pants – are formed of long lasting fibreglass, not plastic. Most are pre-painted in 3 colours to match the trimcolour Mono Kote trim scheme – which accents the Skylane's sport-scale looks without requiring any workbench time. Airfoil shaped struts & supplied fairings enhance the Skylane's aerodynamic profile.

Great Planes Christen Eagle 46 ARTF (A-GPMA1431) Like the hot rod, the Christen Eagle is an all-American creation. Self-made millionaire Frank Christensen designed it as an unlimited-class aerobat that pilots could build at home.
