Ready for pioneering flights in just 10-12 hours!

Getting the original Spirit of St. Louis ready to cross the Atlantic required months of preparation. Today, pilots can be ready to recreate that historic flight in less than a day, with Great Planes' Spirit of St. Louis Park Flyer ARF.

Any modeler with moderate building experience and an eye for scale looks is a potential pilot, and any potential pilot will be happy with what the Spirit of St. Louis offers for the price. Building is virtually non-existent, while conveniences and scale touches abound. Detailed landing gear and a replica radial engine enhance its realism. A generous hardware and accessory package adds additional scale details, while the included motor and gear drive keep costs down and progress underway.

• Designed for completeness. Includes foam wheels for the detailed landing gear, a scale spinner, prop, generous hardware, decals and die-cut wood braces — all in addition to a 4.1:1 gear drive and 280-size motor. All items grouped and bagged for convenience!
  
   
• The tail group, 1-piece fuselage and 1-piece wing are painted, to simplify assembly, eliminate finishing and speed progress.
  
   
• All-foam construction holds weight to just 350g. Mass to move is minimized, allowing the Spirit of St. Louis to cruise at just 1/2 to 2/3 throttle with just a 280 motor in the nose.
  
   
• Goes aloft with a hand launch or rollout — and flies for up to 5 minutes on a 350mAh pack.
  
   
• Light, undercambered wing is ideal for slow, stately flight but leaves room for slow loops and oh-so-slow stall turns.
  
   
• Easy-open wing battery hatch speeds pack installation and replacement.
  
   
• Prefinished foam fuselage offers ample room for installation of micro-sized on-board radio equipment.
