Nitro F-86D Sabre ARF
Hi,
Anyone tried this one yet, or even converted it to turbine power? The model is made in China (surprise..), sold in USA by Nitro Models, in Europe by Kalm Services UK and others. People who saw this kit say quality and scale looks are quite good, but obviously it would require some strengthening and modifications to convert from prop to jet power.
Here some specs:
"Wing span: 60 in /1524mm
Wing Area : 887 sq in /57.2 sq dm
Flying weight : 13.8lbs /6300g
Fuselage Length : 67 in / 1700 mm
Engine Required : 2c 140 4c 180
Radio Required : 6 channels 9-10 servos
Top quality wood construction with fiberglass fuselage. Detachable 2-piece main wing with ailerons and flaps. Detachable stabilizer, all hardware and accessories included, optional pneumatic or electric retractable landing gear."
