Pipe – F3A Bi-Plane (755mm)

The Pipe is designed for indoor F3A style flying. The fuselage is made from EPP, the profile is strengthened by EPP half tubes which are glued onto the side of the fuselage – this stops the fuz from flexing & twisting in flight. The wings & tail surfaces are made from 3mm depron giving the model clean, crisp flight characteristics.
Designed to be built light, this model is best suited to indoor use, but can be used outside in calm conditions. Given the large amount of wing area, this model is capable of flying at very slow speeds whilst remaining responsive to control input.
