An airplane for all occasions.
With its bolt-together assembly, the 68" span Escapade Sport/Aerobatic GP/EP ARF is a breeze to build – and so enjoyable and affordable, you'll want to fly it every chance you get. Multiple options are available to power it, while the larger dimensions will add stability and visibility to your sport maneuvers.
Flies equally well with a glow engine or brushless electric motor
Tail surfaces bolt on and align automatically, and control horns are pre-installed and pre-aligned
Control surfaces are pre-hinged
A two-piece wing simplifies assembly as well as transportation
Other convenience/detail touches include a fiberglass cowl and wheel pants, plus a painted and installed pilot figure

A huge time-saver, the tail surfaces bolt on and align automatically; even the control horns are pre-installed and pre-aligned.

Access to electric flight batteries – or the preassembled, three-line fuel tank – is fast and easy.

Not only is the pilot figure included, it comes already painted and installed.

The two-piece wing is another convenience features. The wing panels assemble onto a joiner tube, simplifying building as well as transportation.

The control surfaces are pre-hinged, which speeds final assembly by eliminating gluing.

The fiberglass cowl and wheel pants complement the Escapade .61's built-up wood construction, and are painted to match the trim scheme.
