What Seagull recommends to go with the Seagull Kwik Fly Pattern 1.6m (63in)
Description
The Seagull Kwik Fly Pattern 1.6m (63in), part number SEA406, is an ARTF low wing aerobatic sportster model aeroplane with a 1,600 mm wingspan that can be set up for i.c. or electric power.
It is Seagull's version of the Phil Kraft Kwik Fly Mk.3, the design associated with the 1967 Aerobatic World Championships. It relies on its aerodynamics rather than on transmitter mixing, aiming for neutral longitudinal stability and a locked-in control response. The airframe is highly prefabricated and finished in Oracover film in a retro colour scheme, and a large top hatch gives access to the fuselage. A fixed trike undercarriage keeps ground handling simple. The manufacturer lists it as suitable for new and experienced aerobatic pilots, with an Intermediate / Advanced experience level.
Power options listed by the manufacturer are a .46 to .55 cu. in. 2-stroke, a .52 to .72 cu. in. 4-stroke, a 10cc petrol engine, or electric power using an 830KV motor, 4S LiPo and 50A ESC. An electric motor conversion mount is included. The model needs a 5-channel radio and is intended for use at a designated R/C model flying site.

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.
