The 1500mm wingspan Challenger sports aerobatic high-wing is an ideal model for the leisurely knocking out of experienced pilots, but it is equally suitable for recreational flyers, for whom it can be the first fully aerobatic machine.
The hull is a classic "box" construction made of light plywood and balsa covered with Oracover® iron-on film. It is ready for the installation of an 800-1300 W AC electric motor in the rear assembly, such as the KAVAN PRO 4345-730, etc. with a 70-90A speed controller with a powerful SBEC power stabilizer. Access to the on-board electronics and propulsion battery compartments is provided by removable covers on the top and bottom of the bow. The mini servo for controlling the rudder and elevator is installed in the tail part of the fuselage.
The two-part wing with a semi-symmetrical profile is also a classic all-balsa construction with an iron-on foil coating; the halves slide from the side onto the carbon tube coupler and secure with screws. The ailerons along the entire span of the wing are controlled by two mini servos stored in the wing using short wire rods with ball studs.
The tail surfaces are light all-balsa construction with an iron-on foil coating.
The main chassis is made of duralumin with light foam wheels of large diameter, the wire spur is coupled with the turn signal.
You will need at least a four-channel RC kit to control the model, but to use the model's full potential you should use at least a six-channel computerized RC kit allowing independent control and mixing of the ailerons. For rudder control, use good mini servos with metal gears, such as the Hitec HS-225MG; for 3D wildness, use strong and fast digital mini servos like the KAVAN GO-1035MG.
To drive the model, you can use an 800-1300 W alternating electric motor, such as the KAVAN PRO 4345-730 with a 14x8" (4S) or 13x8" (5S) propeller, a 70-90A regulator and a 4-5S LiPo battery 2600-4500 mAh with load capacity of at least 30C; for really 3D antics, at least 40C.
ARF kit includes: assembled fuselage, wing, iron-on foil-coated tail surfaces, carbon wing joint, duralumin main landing gear and spur with light wheels, propeller cone, small accessories, sheet of self-adhesive decals, instructions.
