Features |

A fully sheeted exterior is perfect for applying scale finishes. |

Scale, operational flaps are an option that greatly increases
flying performance. |

A detailed Cockpit Kit is available separately to further enhance
the Mentor’s appearance! |

The Mentor will fly well with a .61-size 2-stroke engine like
the one shown here; a 4-stroke power plant will also fit inside the cowl.

Take flight with an American military classic trainer!
|
For almost 50 years the T-34 Mentor was a primary trainer
for new U.S. Air Force and Navy pilots. Though many full-size Mentors still exist
today, there are few R/C models of this plane around. But Top Flite is proud to
announce the unveiling of a 1/5 scale replica of this legendary trainer that performs
as realistically as it looks. With its Gold Edition engineering and lots of scale
touches, this T-34 Mentor makes for a proud addition to your military model hangar.
- The fuse and wings are fully sheeted in 3/32" balsa for added
strength, while the tail section is sheeted in 1/16" balsa for lighter weight.
- The cowl and tail cone are made of heavy-duty ABS plastic
for durability.
- Selig 3086 and 3087 airfoils deliver comforting stability
for smooth flight and basic aerobatics.
- The large canopy can be installed to slide open and closed,
and can be enhanced with a full cockpit kit (LXDAD7) and 1/4 scale pilot figures.
- Performance options include operational flaps and retractable
landing gear.
