Sortakhoi & Aventura II

The almost-ready-to-fly (ARF) Sortakhoi combines the great looks and feel of a jet with the ease and convenience of a park flyer-a great idea! Running on a Jeti Phasor 15/3 motor, the Sortakhoi looks and flies like a jet, but it can also land at slow speeds and fly in confined spaces like a park flyer. Constructed entirely of lightweight balsa and covered in Oracover, the Sortakhoi is 40 inches long, weighs 2 pounds, 3 ounces and has a 33-inch wingspan. It sells for $129. Whether you prefer fighters or seaplanes, Hobby Lobby has something to suit you. Designed for a Speed 400 motor, the Aventura II Flying Boat is the perfect floatplane for that neighborhood pond. The Aventura has already built and covered wings, and its white, fiberglass fuselage has a large frontal planing surface to ensure good water takeoffs. The Aventura weighs 28 ounces and sells for $128.
