Using a combination of a strong lightweight molded plastic shell over a carbon-reinforced balsa-and-ply internal structure, the complex curves of the DH88 Comet are faithfully reproduced in this semi-scale almost ready-to-fly model. The tail surfaces and wing use a traditional built-up structure that is factory-built and covered in film with the simple white insignia and trim already applied, and the painted molded engine nacelles require only minimum installation work.
Designed for a pair of .52 size four-strokes (Magnum XL52 RFS recommended) or go electric with a pair of brushless motors - mounts are included for both options. Designed for optional retracts, a custom set of air operated retracts is available.
The Comet is designed for aileron, elevator, rudder, throttle, retracts and flap control using a combination of standard and micro servos. For strength, the outer wing panels use an aluminum tube joiner to the center section. The entire wing is removable for easy transport.
