Description
The Seagull Nieuport 28 1/5 Scale (20cc) 1.72m (68in) (SEA-303), part number 5500037, is a 1/5 scale ARTF radio-controlled model aircraft with a wingspan of 1.72 m (68 in). It represents the real Nieuport 28, which first flew in June 1917 and was the first fighter from its company to use a standard two-spar wing. Its slim fuselage could not take twin Vickers guns, so one was mounted on the fuselage side.
The model has a laser-cut balsa and ply structure that arrives factory built and covered in genuine Oracover. Sport scale touches include a detailed cockpit with a hand-painted pilot, a scale Vickers gun set and scale-effect wheels with decals. The four-piece plug-in wings make transport easier, a large removable top hatch gives access to the interior, and the rudder uses a pull-pull system. Seagull rates it for intermediate to advanced pilots, and it is recommended for ages 14 and over, flown at a designated R/C model flying site.
It is designed for glow, petrol/gas or electric power. Suggested power is a 20 to 26cc glow or petrol engine, while the suggested electric set-up is a 110-size outrunner with an 8-9S LiPo battery and an 85A ESC. A full electric conversion kit with an adjustable motor stand-off and a slide-in LiPo battery tray is supplied for the electric option.
