A-7 Crusader ARF- The 70mm fan with its outrunner motor on 4 lithium polymer cells propels the big A-7 with power and speed. Hand launches are a breeze, the airplane has an easy to grip fuselage; a firm toss and off you go. Assembly is quick as all of the tough steps have been pre-done. Tail surfaces must be glued to the fuselage and connected to the pre-installed servos; the main wing has carbon tube reinforcements and must be screwed in place on the fuselage after connecting the aileron servos to your receiver. By the time you have the included 2200mAh 4-cell battery charged, you should be ready to fly. The CG is set automatically when you install the battery in the battery compartment under the canopy. This airplane is handlaunched and lands on its belly, great for those guys that don't have a paved runway to fly from. Airplane comes pre-painted with the water slide decals pre-applied. Fan and motor unit is easily accessible through a hatch in the bottom of the fuselage. This is a 4 servos airplane, 2 for ailerons and 2 for elevators. $249.00
