A semi scale model of an aerobatic aeroplane for 100-130ccm petrol engine for experienced pilots capable of the classic pattern as well as extreme 3D style.
The fuselage is of - now classic - ultra light design featuring balsa and plywood Kevlar®/carbon composite reinforced parts, detachable fibreglass cowl and large fuselage/canopy hatch allowing perfect access to the entire power system and RC gear. The engine is to be fitted to a plywood/composite reinforced box using a radial mount.
The two-piece all-balsa wing with a symmetrical airfoil uses a carbon tube joiner; the wing halves are secured with screws to the fuselage. The large ailerons are controlled by a pair of servos each.
The empennage is a light all-balsa work; the two-piece horizontal tailplane uses a carbon tube joiner. The elevators are controlled by servos installed in horizontal stabilizer halves. The rudder is controlled by a pair of servos with a closed-loop linkage installed in the cockpit.
The entire model is covered by the ULTRACOTE® iron-on film (ULTRACOTE® is the trade mark for the ORACOVER® film used in the USA.)
The main undercarriage features carbon composite legs, fibreglass spats and lightweight wheels; the tail wheel with a carbon bracket is coupled with the rudder.
You will need a reliable 100-130 ccm petrol engine (GP-123 is always a great choice).
You will need at least 9-channel RC set to control your Laser Z200 - the precise set-up of paired servos, optimized dual and exponential rates is the must for aerobatic flying - the pattern as well as extreme 3D.
You will need 8 fast and strong standard size digital servos, like Futaba S9177SV, Hitec HS-7950TH, D980TW or HSB-9381TH and one good standard size servo for the throttle control.
