Multiplex RR FunCub XL ND
Brand: Multiplex
Part No: MPX1-02052
Shadow Stock: Usually ships next day
The Multiplex RR FunCub XL ND (MPX1-02052) is the latest evolution of the much‑loved high‑wing FunCub XL, refined to be lighter, more agile and even more capable on short strips. A redesigned M‑Frame fuselage core and huge EPP wheels save around 200g, reducing stall speed and enhancing the power‑to‑weight ratio for confident STOL performance on a wide range of surfaces. The Elapor foam airframe arrives RR (receiver‑ready) with motor, ESC and servos pre‑installed, plus an updated, stylish trim scheme.
Precision, locked‑in handling defines the FunCub XL ND. From relaxed low‑speed circuits and high‑alpha hovers to knife‑edge passes and tow duties, it offers a broad, fully aerobatic envelope. Thoughtful touches include elegant LED covers for optional lighting, a large cargo chute, and a tow release fitted as standard, with quick battery access via the canopy and detachable wing panels for easy transport. Suggested compatibility includes towing the Lentus and Alpina sailplanes.

The new FunCub XL ND (New Design) is a development of the versatile and popular FunCub XL multifunction high-wing aerobatic tow aircraft. Says Multiplex of its new high-winger: "Our goal was to lose weight and give [the FunCub] a fresh look. We ve achieved the weight savings by redesigning the M-Frame fuselage core and fitting EPP wheels, a combination that has saved 200g and enabled us to achieve an even lower airspeed and a better power-to-weight ratio. This, of course, improves the short take-off and landing properties even further, allowing the XL ND to be used on almost any terrain.
Like its predecessor, the new FunCub has many subtle but beautifully crafted details, not to mention elegant LED covers for the optional lighting, a tow release as standard, and a large cargo chute for which a suitable parachutist is available. Why is the FunCub XL so popular? The reasons are many and varied however the model's key quality comes in its precise, beautifully harmonised, locked-in flying characteristics. The result is an aeroplane that s as happy performing a high-alpha hover as it is knife-edge circuits. Truth to tell, the FunCub XL sets completely new standards in its class. It is, quite simply, a model that ll find favour with a multitude of pilots covering all skill levels and performance requirements.
