- Description
The Challenger traditional kit gives you the chance to step away from the ARTF trend, not everyone wants to fly a ready made model with the same colour scheme, the challenger gives you the pleasure of building your own aircraft and covering it in the scheme of your choice.
ARTF kits are great, we all love em and we all appreciate the time savings they provide, however a growing number of R/C flyers are finding that, having assembled one or two ARTFs, what they really fancy is a stab at traditional building. Some choose a plan build for their first foray into balsa-bashing but most seek a simple kit, a kit such as the Seagull Challenger, that offers all the advantages of laser cut parts, carefully chosen hardware and an instruction manual that guides you step-by-step through the build process.
In truth, the Challenger is the perfect choice for not only does it ensure a problem-free build, it offers an opportunity to produce a one-off model in a colour scheme of your choice and promises a fantastic, agile aerobatic flight performance when you're finished.
Building your own R/C model is absorbing, enjoyable and immensely satisfying and that's why so many are deciding to give it a go. It's also why the Challenger kit is such a popular choice amongst sport flyers and those seeking a good follow-on aerobat.
Please note this is the model only and further items are required ie engine or electric motor, radio equipment and accessories.
