JP Panic Kit
Brand: J Perkins
Part No: JPDAA1000
In Stock: Usually ships same day
The J Perkins JP Panic Kit (part number JPDAA1000) brings a true RC classic back to the bench. Inspired by Phil Newman’s legendary fun-fly biplane, this revised edition blends heritage aerobatic performance with modern kit engineering. It features precision laser-cut balsa and plywood parts, an interlocking wing structure, pre-formed wire undercarriage and a comprehensive instruction manual to help you build quickly and accurately.
Versatile on power, the Panic suits a .52 four-stroke, .60–.91 two-stroke or an electric setup, giving you flexibility in how you fly. With moderate control rates and a typical .60-size glow engine it’s friendly and confidence-inspiring; open up the throws and fit a larger engine and it becomes an outrageously lively aerobat. Servo selection matters for this model: J Perkins notes Hitec HS635HBs for intermediate pilots and HS5625MGs for those seeking a more aggressive setup.

Having fun never goes out of fashion and neither does the Panic bipe. In the late '70s a group of competition pilots were flying a fantastic new biplane designed by the late Phil Newman. They got together after fun-fly competitions to put on the most amazing displays of aerial dancing the like of which had never been witnessed before. That bipe was known as the Panic and the rest, as they say, is history.
This new, revised kit from J.Perkins is bang up-to-date with laser-cut parts, pre-formed u/c, an interlocking wing construction and full instructions. It builds quickly and accurately and suits a .52 four-stroke, .60-.91 two-stroke or electric power and requires 4 or 5 standard size servos.
Panic is for everyone; whether you re an experienced stick-banger, or relatively new and looking for your first aerobat. With a .60-size engine and low rates it s friendly and fun, but insanely lively with a larger engine and huge control surface deflections. Just make sure you select your servos accordingly. We d suggest Hitec HS635HBs for intermediate pilots and HS5625MGs for experts.
