Vintage Super Sportster & Don Anderson
"Ever since the original .40-size kit appeared in 1982, Super Sportsters have grown with every advance in the R/C hobby. They've adapted like champs to 4-stroke engines, ARF assembly and brushed electric power. This design just gets better with time – as you'll discover behind the sticks of the first brushless electric Super Sportster!"

Super Sportster EP Motor
Engineered to keep weight to the minimum, this model excels with affordable sizes of LiPo batteries and brushless electronics. Install the RimFire™ .25 outrunner motor (GPMG4675) for exceptional performance.

Super Sportster battery compartment hatch
To access the spacious battery compartment, just lift off the magnetically secured hatch cover. You’ll find plenty of room for easy installation of the recommended LiPo batteries.

Super Sportster fiberglass parts
The fiberglass cowl and wheel pants reduce weight and simplify assembly — there’s no cutting or painting to be done. The rest of the model uses high-quality, built-up wood construction, covered in MonoKote film.

Super Sportster factory-hinged ailerons
Assembly can be completed in just a few evenings, thanks to such timesavers as factory-hinged ailerons. Even the Super Sportster starbust graphics are already applied using MonoKote film!

Super Sportster
Despite its economical and easy-to-transport size, the brushless Super Sportster EP ARF isn't a delicate park flyer – it's always ready to perform beautifully without waiting for those rare "perfect" flying conditions.

Super Sportster EP 3-view
A 1982 advertisement described the original Super Sportster 40 kit as a "hot-looking aerobatic bombshell". That description also fits this brushless EP version – whose 21st century ARF engineering and construction produce the best-looking, best-flying electric Sportster to date!

Super Sportster Flying
Relaxing on low rates, the brushless Super Sportster EP is a great first low-wing model. More experienced sport pilots can firewall the throttle and watch it really move!
