WEST WINGS

At last, a real model builders delight - balsa, ply, plans are all included.

A classic kit of one of the great 1950's jets.

Designed for 480 size ducted fan units with a shroud diameter of around 72mm (plans show Wemotec 480 or Wattage unit), this is a lightweight balsa build up kit including CNC-cut ribs and formers with lightweight moulded components for the fan ducts, intakes and scale detailing.

The model is fast with a cobalt motor and the prototype was flown using a 10-cell Sanyo 1700 (4/5SC) nicad pack and a 10-cell Kan 2000 (4/5SC) Nimh pack, although a 11.1v Li-po cell could be used which is lighter and so more pefromance and duration could be found. 

Flying time using a wemotec cobalt with these packs was around 4-5 minutes.

The wings are true scale outline and the tail plane has been increased in area by 10%.

The model is intended to be bungee launched and is not suitable for hand-launching.

A military decal set is included with full-scale rolled plans.

The kit has been designed for moderately experienced builders and pilots.

RC accessories, fan unit not included.
