Almost Ready-to-Fly EP Aerobatic Foam Profile Plane

Discover new worlds of aerobatic precision.

gpma1117

The RC Universe Biplane excels at competition-style performance, such as precision aerobatics and 3D maneuvers. Licensed by the internet's most active R/C web site — whose members number in the hundreds of thousands — it's an almost infinite source of flying fun... in an easy, go-anywhere design.

Brushless Upgrade
Parts Layout
Fly in just 2-3 hours! Using foam-safe CA and the supplied custom hardware, you'll easily assemble the RC Universe Biplane's pre-printed foam panels and carbon rods into a sturdy, great-looking 3D model.

Innovative hardware for Tape-Free Assembly
Control Horns
Control Horns
The control horns have a larger than normal hole that fits the Z-bend pushrod connector without slop. The control does double duty as a hinge, reducing weight and assuring correct linkage geometry.
  Landing Gear
Landing Gear
Molded strut supports hold the 2 mm carbon rod landing gear legs in position. They're also braced at the fuselage, wing and wheels for a strong, properly reinforced landing gear.
 
Amazing Control Throw
Amazing Control Throw
Large servo arms and control horns offer up to 80 degree deflection.
  Clip-Hinge System
Clip-Hinge System
Clip-Hinges allow control surfaces to pop off in a crash and avoid damage.
 
Z-Bends
Z-Bends
A large bearing surface on the Z-bends reduces wear to prevent slop, unlike linkage systems that rely on small wire Z-bends. To make installation simple, the 1 mm carbon rod is secured in the Z-bend with a drop of CA.
  Tailwheel
Tailwheel
The tail gear pivots on the carbon fin post, allowing the snap-in tailwheel to steer the airplane while on the ground.
