Pre-Order

The Max-Thrust Double Trouble - Balsa Pro Built - Red (MAXB-DT-R) is a factory-built ARTF aerobatic biplane for intermediate to advanced pilots. Inspired by classic open-cockpit bipe styling with modern Ultimate cues, it combines full-house aerobatic capability with superb slow-speed manners and confident ground handling. The lightweight balsa/ply structure is factory covered, while a dural undercarriage and glass fibre cowl and spats add durability. With an easy-to-transport one-piece airframe and a highly visible red scheme, it’s a practical, all-season club model.

Power options include regular .46–.55 two-stroke glow engines or a 4–5S electric setup, with mounts supplied for both. The Double Trouble spans 1,135mm and measures 1,070mm in length, making it a convenient size for traditional UK flying sites.
