Description
The Seagull 188 Cessna 97in (30-38cc) 2.47m (97.3in) (SEA-299), part number 5500025, is a semi-scale ARTF model of the Cessna 188 Agwagon agricultural aircraft, designed for intermediate to advanced pilots. It has a wingspan of 2.47m (97 in) and combines a stable high-wing layout with the distinctive crop-duster look of the original.
The airframe is built from lightweight balsa and plywood and arrives with the covering already applied in the factory using Oracover. The control surfaces are pre-hinged, and the drop-hinge flaps are designed to look realistic and help slow the model down for landing. Scale details include wing struts, a spray bar and corrugated finishing on the control surfaces, along with a detailed cockpit, a pre-painted fibreglass cowl and aluminium landing gear. The two-piece plug-in wing makes the model easier to transport.
The model is intended for a 30-38cc petrol engine, or an electric equivalent, and is recommended for use at a designated R/C model flying site by pilots aged 14 and over. The original Agwagon was introduced in the 1960s for aerial spraying and dusting and became known for its rugged, simple design.
