LANIER RC: Ripper & Slasher

Model Airplane News, Jan 2004

These combat planes were designed with one thing in mind: to destroy enemy aircraft! Both kits come with a high-density, fiberglass fuselage, laser-cut plywood parts, plastic tail feathers, Aero-Glass wing spar and a reinforced, vacuum-formed plastic leading edge. Build one in 3 to 6 hours, and you're ready for action! The Ripper has a 60.5-iuch wingspan and 456 square inches of wing area, and it weighs 2.25 to 2.75 pounds. It requires a .15 engine and 3-channel radio. The 68.5-inch-span Slasher has 591 square inches of wing area, weighs 3 to 3.5 pounds and requires a .25 to .30 engine and 3-channel radio.
