They say the nicest things come in small parcels; the Attila proves the point. Easy to transport with very forgiving flying characteristics, the Attila provides economical fun flying. The kit provides all materials for the 3 channel version but aileron conversion is detailed on the plan. This is one of our earlier kits and as such it should be remembered that the instructions require the builder to interpret the full size plan more so than more modern kits. This said the kit builds easily and is a fine performer.
For those of you interested in electric powered models I have some news from Mr Brian England who recently converted an Attila. He says it flies superbly well at an all up weight of 3 lb 10 oz (1.65 kg). It was fitted with a Speed 600 and 2:1 ratio gearbox, a standard Master Airscrew plastic 11" x 6" prop, and a battery pack of 8 cells/1700 mAHr.
