The Belair Kits Sopwith 1/2 Strutter 42 Inch Electric Scale Kit (A-BA001) recreates one of WW1’s multi-role workhorses at a manageable 42.4-inch span. The full-size aircraft served as an observation machine, bomber, home defence fighter and shipboard type; this model mirrors that heritage and is described as an easy-to-fly floater for relaxed vintage-scale sorties.
