Jet kit features

ARF kit all composite

We offer the new NEW F-15C as an ARF kit with all composite components. A detailed description of this revolutionary new kit can be found here.

Easy to build kits

We also offer easy to build kits for the following five jets: Fouga Magister, old F-15C, F-16A, F-104G and Rafale A. These require a bit more work to complete than the ARF kit, but they also offer a greater sense of reward to the builder. They are all designed for Turbine power although the kits are still available for Ducted Fan power if required. Conversion kits from Ducted Fan to Turbine power are still available for each model except for the new F-15 ARF which is turbine power exclusively.

All these easy to build kits have a high level of prefabrication and are very easy to build/assemble, however they are not ARF's. The advantage of our deluxe kits over ARF's are lower cost, less weight and ease of repair. Average modelling skills and a fair amount of time in the workshop  is all you need to successfully build/assemble one of our easy to build kits.

A detailed photo-illustrated manual, included in each kit, will guide you step by step through the construction. Furthermore, a full size detailed CAD plan is supplied as an extra reference. Typically, our standard kits build/assemble in about 50 hours (*).

Tailpipe and fuel tanks included in all kits!

All our kits come with a gel-coated fuselage, intake liners, hatches etc. A unique feature of our kits is the peel-ply in the areas where the formers must be glued. This makes bonding the formers a much easier task! F-15 and F-16 kits have carbon reinforcements in the fuselage as well. The F-16 has the rear former already installed.

The flying surfaces are high density foam sheeted with balsawood and strategically reinforced with carbon fibre. All plywood and balsa parts are precision CNC cut for a perfect fit. CNC cutting takes longer but is far superior to laser cutting. The Fouga Magister has  traditionally built up flying surfaces, more info here.

Also supplied: a clear canopy and a black plastic cockpitdeck representing the upper part of the instrument panel and the upper part of the ejection seat. All the hardware needed to mount the flying surfacess, to hook up the control linkages, the hatch latches, up to the last nut and bolt is supplied. Even a set of wheels and the appropriate (Turbine or Ducted Fan) complete fuel tank system is included in all of our kits (except no wheels in the Fouga Magister kit). Turbine kits always include the stainless steel pipe.
