Bolt-On Design
A huge time-saver, the tail surfaces bolt-on and align automatically; even the control horns are pre-installed and pre-aligned.

Battery Access
Access to electric flight batteries – or the preassembled, three-line fuel tank – is fast and easy.

Scale Pilot
Not only is the pilot figure included, it comes already painted and installed.

Easy Assembly
The two-piece wing is another convenience features. The wing panels assemble onto a joiner tube, simplifying building as well as transportation.

Control Surfaces
The control surfaces are pre-hinged, which speeds final assembly by eliminating gluing.

Fiberglass Parts
The fiberglass cowl and wheel pants complement the Escapade .61's built-up wood construction, and are painted to match the trim scheme.
