Vans RV-8 Eagle Fire (ARF) NEW from Seagull Models

Airplane designer Richard VanGrunsven has dominated the homebuilt airplane hobby for the past 40+ years. His series of all-aluminum low-wing "RV" airplanes provide pilots with the level of flight performance and good looks that they want. Since 1973 Van's Aircraft has sold over 18,000 kits and plans, with over 8,000 airplanes completed and flying in 45 countries. In the U.S. alone the number of RVs completed each year exceeds the combined production of all commercial general aviation companies. The RV-8 is Van's latest design that features tandem centerline seating, for those fighter pilot types who like to sit in the middle. Like all RVs, the RV-8 climbs well, lands slow, and goes fast.

Key Features:

Expertly constructed with laser-cut balsa and add carbon reinforcing to the balsa and ply structure - these make light weight construction and strong airframe structure
Functional flaps and scale hinges add realism and a wider flight envelope
Light wing loading for easy handling, easily removable wings for transport and storage
Factory covered in genuine Oracover film with Eye-catching high-vis colour scheme.
Huge top hatch for easy battery and equipment access
6061-T6 aluminum landing gear offers increased durability and scale appeal
Fiberglass control horns for optimized throw and precision and All linkages use ball links for secure.
The RV-8 is a fully aerobatic-capable airplane, stable and responsive. You'll even see RV-8's competing in sportsman and intermediate categories and 3D performance.
Incredible value with carbon fiber wing tube 19mm and carbon fiber tube 12mm for horizontal tail as well as carbon fiber tail gear assembly
High quality of 500ml Transparent RC Fuel Tank w/Clunk Weight, Fill & Vent Nipples and PU rubber wheel plastic Hub.
Turnbuckle-style pushrods, ball links and turnbuckle wrench included
Detailed cockpit area features a scale pilot, instrument decal and crystal-clear canopy
Scale navigation Led lights pre-wired and included
Includes motor mount for the electric power option
Complete hardware kit include
