TheTRI-40 II is a perfect introduction into 4 channel radio control flying. This version of the TRI-40 II is supplied in kit format, allowing you to get fully stuck in with the build in the traditional method.
The airframe is built from laser cut parts that slot together with ease creating a finished structure that is both lightweight and rigid. The instructions guide you through the build and the pre-cut parts speed the process up dramatically from wooden kits of the past. Once built you can install your choice of electric or I/C power systems and adding the radio equipment can be completed over a couple of evenings. The kit includes a metal engine mount, spinner, fuel tank, linkage set, plywood electric motor mount, foam wheels and landing gear as well as a comprehensive hardware pack.
The TRI-40 II excells as a trainer and is ectremely stable in a variety of weathers. The low wing loading produces forgiving flight characteristics and the in-built dihedral adds to the stability making it perfect for the novice pilot. Increase the control movements and the TRI-40 II is also capable of sports and aerobatic flying.
