What Seagull recommends to go with the Seagull Kwik Fly Mk.3 (10cc / 4s) 1.6m / 63in
Description
The Seagull Kwik Fly Mk.3 (10cc / 4s) 1.6m / 63in, part number SEA406Y, is a highly prefabricated ARTF low wing sportster model aeroplane with a 1,600 mm wingspan, designed for i.c. or electric power.
It is based on the Phil Kraft Kwik Fly, the design that won the 1967 Aerobatic World Championships. The model dates from before computer transmitters and mixing, so it relies on its aerodynamics and layout for neutral longitudinal stability, a harmonised control response and a performance-driven power to weight ratio. Seagull describes the result as locked-in flying that suits both new and experienced aerobatic pilots.
The airframe arrives factory finished in Oracover film in a retro colour scheme. A large top hatch gives access to the fuselage, and the fixed trike undercarriage keeps ground handling straightforward. With a length of 1,370 mm and a wing area of 48 dm², it is a club-sized model for use at a designated R/C flying site, and it carries an age recommendation of 14+.
Power choices are broad. Seagull lists a 2-stroke glow engine of .46 to .55 cu. in., a 4-stroke glow engine of .52 to .72 cu. in., or a 10cc petrol engine. For electric flight, the 10cc / 4s designation points to an 830KV motor, a 4S LiPo and a 50A ESC, and an electric motor conversion mount is included. The model needs a 5-channel radio and takes a maximum of 6 servos.

Specifications
Arguably the nicest flying low wing sportster available, the Phil Kraft Kwik Fly Mk.3 is famed for winning the 1967 Aerobatic World Championships and is adored by all who get their hands on one. Harking back to a time before computer transmitters, mixing functions and digital trim compensation, the Kwik Fly uses pure aerodynamics and good design to ensure neutral longitudinal stability, a harmonised, locked-in control response and a performance-driven power to weight ratio.
Boasting a build quality, finish and flight envelope that Phil Kraft would surely have been proud to call his own, Seagull’s version of the Kwik Fly is not only light and strong, its retro-inspired choice of colour schemes are massively appealing, it’s quick to assemble and it flies like it’s on rails. Everyday club aerobats don’t get much nicer or easier to fly and we haven’t even mentioned the practicality of its fixed trike undercarriage, rugged build and fuss-free ownership experience. You’re going to absolutely adore it.
