This beautiful 1/4 scale design of Glenn Curtiss’ pre war Model D is definitely unique. The kit comes with a dummy OX-5 engine, laser cut wood and water jet brass fittings, turnbuckles, machined aluminum pulleys, Smithsonian scale documentation, and 3 wire spoke wheels.
The flight system design incorporates the radio and servos inside the pilot, yes that’s right Glenn actually flies the model. Ground handling is a bit tricky since the gear doesn’t steer but the design more than make up for this once it is in the air. This steady and stable flier brings everything to a stop at the field.
Setup and disassembly is quick and easy by removing the tail booms and a couple of cable connections.
Recommended for intermediate builders that want something completely different.
Pilots figure optional.
