GREAT PLANES MODEL MFG.

Now is your chance to own the Super Chipmunk made famous by legendary aerobatic pilot Art Scholl. The Great Planes Super Chipmunk .91 to 1.20 ARF is a scale replica of Art Scholl's preferred ride, right down to the expert MonoKote trim scheme. Not only does this IMAA-legal scale model capture the look of his Super Chipmunk, but it is also capable of re-creating all of those dazzling moves. The kit includes balsa and plywood built-up wings and stabilizer and a painted fiberglass fuselage, cowl and wheel pants. Landing gear, a very complete hardware package and even the pilot figure are also included. This great-looking scale ARF requires only 12 to 15 hours of construction, and at a price of only $400, there really isn't any reason not to tear up the sky with one.

Specs: wingspan-81 in.; length-62.5 in.; wing area-1,000 sq. in.; weight-13 to 14 lb.; engine-.91 to 1.20 2-stroke.
