Seagull Pietenpol Air Camper (40-60cc) 2.74m (108in)

The Pietenpol Air Camper is a stunning giant-scale replica of the classic homebuilt aircraft, combining vintage character with modern RC performance. With an impressive 2.74m (108") wingspan, this ARTF model is crafted from balsa and plywood and is designed for 40–60cc petrol engines or a high-powered 12S electric setup.

Finished in a nostalgic open-cockpit style, it features braced wings, pilot figure, struts, functional control surfaces, and a scale undercarriage. Despite its size, the Air Camper offers gentle, stable flight characteristics—perfect for relaxed cruising, touch-and-gos, or classic-style aerobatics. A rewarding model for intermediate to advanced pilots who appreciate timeless designs and commanding presence.

About the original:
The Pietenpol Air Camper was one of the world's first successful homebuilt aircraft, originally designed in the late 1920s by Bernard Pietenpol. Built for simplicity and affordability, it quickly gained a cult following for its open-cockpit charm and docile handling. Nearly a century later, the design remains a symbol of accessible aviation and vintage flying spirit.
