Kessock Models Acro-50
ARTF 3D model - Really nicely built ARTF for £74 with a super performance.
Another good model from Mark at Kessock Models in Weymouth. Take a look at www.kessockmodels.com for details or often on E-Bay. We initially bought this as a 'spare' model but it has become one of our favourites. I have a .52 ASP FS up front and it has an all up weight of 4.5 lbs. HIGHLY aerobatic - it does everything we can and more and it looks great ( if you like the colour!) The kit is very complete even down to the closed loop rudder parts and it fits together better than some models at twice the price. Engine installation well thought out with loads of room for a 2 stroke silencer. Interesting glass undercarriage legs and what seems injection moulded spats. Tiny wheels but this model does not spend much time on the ground! Handling is excellent. Only issue was one poorly moulded clevice which we replaced. Hardly a big deal. Knife edge all day long!!!

OOPS!! Really upset as this model is no more due to a bit too much knife edge flying too low. Unfortunately she hit the ground flat out due to pilot error and was beyond repair. A real shame as this was an excellent airframe. The only problem I encountered during its life was a fracture in the plastic U/C leg which were replaced with aluminium legs.
