Trainers.

The Cambrian FLYER. (CA16)

A simple but attractive basic trainer designed to overcome the problems experienced by beginners with many of the so called "trainers" on the market today. The FLYER's jig built fuselage ensures a proper set up of the wing and tailplane incidence, whilst downthrust is built in and all holes for the motor mount, cables and dowels etc. are pre-drilled. The clean lines and light weight of the Cambrian FLYER mean that it can be flown on low power by the novice, allowing more time for recovery should any co-ordination problems develop.

The kit contains: Jig built plywood fuselage. Veneered foam wing panels. Pre-sectioned leading edges, rear spars, ailerons, elevators and rudder (the control surfaces being pre-drilled to receive hinges). Moulded fairings; cockpit cover, nose cone etc. all cut to finished sizes. Pre-formed undercariage, motor mount, fuel tank, wheels and spinner, plus all control cables and fitting. A detailed step by step, illustrated instruction book.

Specification: Wing Span 60". Wing Area 490sq.in. Average Flying Weight 31b l2oz (1.7kg). .20-.25 cu in. motors. Four function radio.
