Nearly indestructible aircraft... perfect for any flier

They save time, money and worry. No wonder DuraPlanes are favorites of both new and experienced modelers!

DuraPlanes may never win "pretty plane" awards, but these low-cost, super-rugged aircraft rank #1 with their owners.

DuraPlane durability is the stuff of legends—and when you know what goes into them, you'll understand why. There's lightweight, resilient, injection-molded foam... reinforcing aluminum U-channels...nearly unbreakable PVC "pipe"... and balsa tail feathers that come pre-cut for quick assembly.

In fact, DuraPlanes' short box-to-air times are almost as appealing as their indestructibility. Improved manuals have reduced assembly time to as little as 12 hours, without requiring specialized tools—and without compromising durability.

In addition to durability and assembly ease, there is always value in a DuraPlane. Whether you're a first-time flier who's afraid of crashing, or an old pro who wants a practice plane, DuraPlane has a plane for you, at a price you can afford.

Here are some of the main features of DuraPlanes:

Minimal use of wood reduces time-consuming sanding and shaping chores. Formed parts—and a low overall parts count—reduces "building" work to fast, simple assembly.

Aluminum U-channels inside each injection-molded foam wing help it absorb impact energy and bounce back for more. Finishing the wings requires only 1 roll of low-temp Top Flite EconoKote® covering.

The extruded, T6 aluminum tail boom is custom-sized to hold standard servos. Modelers simply "pop" them in place, and use servo tape for added security.

All DuraPlane designs merge firewall and engine mount into a single, injected-molded piece. The mount for all the airplanes simply bolts to the PVC fuselage.

Like all other DuraPlane components, the duraluminum landing gear is extra-thick to withstand "aggressive" landings.
