FLY LIKE A V.I.P.1/43 Scale Collective Pitch Heli

❚ The unique 4-blade rotor head features collective pitch that expands the heli’s maneuverability — while the TAGS 3-axis gyro provides smooth, stable fl ight

❚ The injection-molded body boasts extensive scale detail you have to see up close to believe, including rivets, windows, turbine exhausts, tie downs, door outlines and more

❚ An effi cient 14,750kV brushless motor provides plentiful power

The forward fuselage is attached magnetically for easy access to the electronics — while also preserving the EC145’s scale lines.

TAGS goes far beyond a single-axis gyro, giving stability to the yaw, roll and pitch axes. That means you can fl y your EC145 with confi dence, knowing that external forces will not adversely affect its performance. It’s stability taken to the next level — once you’ve experienced TAGS, you won’t ever want to fl y without it!

The BLACK HAWK’s amazing detail can be seen from any angle, and features scale touches such as an injection-molded body with rivet details, radio antennas and 3 LED lights. You’ll also notice a scale 4-bladed rotor head, windshield wipers, exit door grabs, engine intakes, scale landing gear and rubber tires.

1/43 Scale Brushless Aerobatic Helicopter

With a collective pitch rotor head and variable pitch tube-driven tail rotor, combined with the TAGS 3-axis gyro, this BLACK HAWK delivers smooth scale fl ight right out of the box, with the capability for fully aerobatic maneuvers.

A magnetic hatch in the nose removes quickly for easy battery changes and access to the brushless outrunner motor, 3 digital servos and high speed digital tail rotor servo.

Total control — to the 3rd power!TAGS does far more than any single-axis gyro. It simultaneously controls the yaw, pitch and roll axes of your heli, to provide stability no single-axis gyro can match. With TAGS, you can fl y with confi dence because it detects external forces and compensates to ensure that they won’t affect performance. The result: smoother fl ight and a locked-in feel to the controls. It’s standard equipment on the BLACK HAWK heli — and once you’ve experienced TAGS, you won’t ever want to fl y without it!

Great Planes applied lessons from the 31” span Rifl e to develop the larger, even easier-to-fl y Rifl e 1M sport version.

From the Experts:The original, 31” span Great Planes Rifl e scored big with pilots looking for fast, full-throttle fun...without needing expensive electronics and spending hours in the workshop prior to fl ight. This one-meter version offers a larger size for better handling and visibility, easier landings, improved gliding performance, and even faster speeds!

Long story short...

NEWPRODUCT

WARNING: The Rifl e 1M requires advanced fl ying skills and is not suitable for beginning or intermediate pilots. In the Speed Confi guration at sea level it reaches 130+ mph (209 km/h) speeds — or 90+ mph (145 km/h) in the Sport Confi guration — and should be fl own only at an approved AMA fl ying site. Because it can quickly disappear from sight, pilots should remain focused on the plane at all times.

A 130+ MPH ADRENALINE RUSH!1-Meter EP Sport ARF

❚ Reaches 130+ mph (209 km/h) using the recommended “speed” power setup

❚ Optional “sport” setup reduces weight and power for regular sport fl ying and extended fl ight times

❚ Dual aileron servos simplify setup and increase precision — and allow the use of spoilerons with a computer radio for slower, shorter landings

❚ Lightweight, unusually durable composite construction

❚ Carbon-fi ber wing spar adds rigidity for high-G pylon turns

❚ Low parts count and pre-hinged control surfaces offer fast, easy assembly

❚ Connector-less linkages provide security and simplicity

Factory-cut inlets and exits allow air to pass through the battery compartment and keep on-board electronics cool. The machined aluminum spinner is included as part of the model’s hardware package.

Edward Glenn Roberts, Jr. loved baseball and car racing. Baseball got him his nickname, “Fireball,” but his victories on dirt tracks turned him to racing full time.

His victories were second only to his personality and he was voted “Most Popular Driver”. This kit features chrome plated parts, soft black tires, detailed supercharger 312 V-8 engine, 50s style racing interior, bodywork modifi cations, and racing suspension parts.

At the outset it was intended primarily as an artillery tractor to haul fi eld artillery. As Allied air power increased, the 7/1 version was upgraded with a quad 20mm anti-aircraft gun and an armored driver’s compartment. These quad guns consumed ammunition so quickly that a separate ammunition trailer was often needed. This kit features a detailed Sd.Kfz. 7/1 with munitions trailer and decals for four units.

A late addition to Britain’s World War I arsenal, the Camel proved to be a formidable foe against Germany’s Albatros. It was highly maneuverable and incredibly fast, so it was a perfect choice for nighttime air raids. Today, the Sopwith Camel remains one of WWI’s most iconic aircraft. This structure model kit features new tooling, museum-quality details, all-plastic construction, silver metal-plated cowl parts, functional rudder and fl ap parts and realistic rubber tires.
