Bolt-on tail surfaces drastically cut assembly time!

Removing the factory-built battery “hatch” also gives you easy access to onboard gear. Magnets in the hatch and fuselage provide a strong bond and a simple way to reattach the hatch after use.
Great Planes Escapade GP/EP ARF - two-piece wing
The two-piece wing assembles quickly, providing accurate alignment automatically.
Great Planes Escapade GP/EP ARF - wheel pants
The fiberglass wheel pants are factory-painted to match the MonoKote trim scheme.
