Oldtimer XXL59
Order No. 1310/00
The kit is of all-wood construction, and all parts are CNC-cut to shape, so all you have to do is glue them together, cover the components, and install the power system. The model is based on the legendary Wakefield “rubber models” from the 1959 - 1960 period. The airframe can be completed in just a few hours, and although the components are pre-fabricated, the process provides all the involving pleasure of building, where a little manual skill can still be exercised, i.e. the construction method still counts as classic modelling.
The fuselage features three openings - a) motor, b) servos, c) battery - providing access to internal parts for maintenance or swapping. We recommend tissue (plain colour) for covering, but heat-shrink film, silk or synthetic tissue can also be used. Low-power motors rated at around 15 - 50 Watts are quite sufficient.
