Overview

The original Top Flite Contender made its debut over 40 years ago. Thousands of pilots have honed their skills flying this classic aerobat. An ultra-thick airfoil allows an ultra-wide flight envelope, so it’s just as adept at slow and steady flight as it is wild, full-throttle aerobatics.
