This Super Decathlon is ideal for the real giant scale enthusiast looking for an aerobat but can also be a gentle Sunday flyer at the same time. At normal throttle settings, it does all of the standard aerobatics as its full scale counterpart. At full throttle, it really tracks well and has a very good steady vertical climb. Its low wing loading makes it also quite stable and predictable on landings.

  • All fuselage sides, top and bottom parts are interlocked for easy, accurate assembly.
