Had this kit lying with me for nearly a year and I don't think I will be making it. It is a big plane and is designed for a brushed 390 motor with gear box, however, a brushless outrunner motor can be used.

Wingspan : 1480 mm
Fuselage : 840 mm

Contents in original box:

Blow moulded plastic fuselage
EPO Main wing (fibre glass rod reinforced) and wing tips
Long pushrods
Motor mounting washers
Folding prop
Foam Vertical and Horizontal tail
Mounting kits for the tail
Instruction manual
Packet of cheap stickers some of which were stuck to each other since arrival
Additional items required:
Motor, ESC, Battery, 2 x 9 gm Servos, Epoxy /CA, your own Tx/Rx

Price Rs.2000/- + courier at actuals.

Please note it is New In Box, but not Brand New as I have already mentioned before. It had come with the main wing broken, which has been repaired with epoxy and is now rock solid. There are minor cosmetic scratches on the surface of the wing (it came that way) which won't affect its flying performance.

Please clarify all doubts before purchasing.

Here is what it should look like once it is finished:

Sorry I wasn't aware that this model was being sold for a lesser price at a LHS. I had purchased it for around Rs.2900/- (if I remember correctly). Prices have dropped since then.

I am open to reasonable offers, however, this is not a distress sale. Thanks for the tip Gusty!

VC sir, i am interested.But require a bit time to approve.Count me in.
Any idea about the shipping charges to lucknow?

PS edited:
I would also like to know how the wings are reinforced? material seems wooden spars at your pictures..
I can take off and fly well. Its landing which sucks :banghead::banghead:

No those are glass fibre strips that have been embedded into the wings. Name your preferred courier and I will check the costs. This kit will be a nightmare to pack so as to avoid a repeat of the damage in transit that I faced when it reached me from a LHS. Speedpost will be cheapest at around 300 bucks or so (guesstimate). I have had a good experience with their handling of multiple consignments. Economical and safe.

Let me know when you have made up your mind. I'm in no hurry. Want it to find a good home.
