About this Plan

Kiwi. RC sport pattern plane. Wingspan 54 in, wing area 480 sq in.

Discontinued kit from Sig.

Quote: "SIG Kiwi. An Aerobatic R/C Sport Model. The simple, strong construction of this low-wing sportster gets you into the air fast. Lots of room in the fuselage for easy mounting of any kind of R/C gear. The large area control surfaces give sensitive maneuvering response for fast action in fun fly competition, or you can reduce the movement and cruise around in a relaxed and easy manner. Ideal for the sporty flier who wants a better looking alternative to the typical 'ugly stick' type model. Check out the list of kit features - there is a lot of model in the box for the money!

Specification:
Engines: .35 - .45 cu. Wingspan: 54 in. Wing Area: 480 sq in. Wing loading: 24 to 26 oz/sq ft. Length: 43 in. Weight: 5 to 5.5 lbs. Radio:
4-Channel (Aileron, Elevator, Rudder, Throttle)."

Notes

* Credit field

The Credit field in the Outerzone database is designed to recognise and credit the hard work done in scanning and digitally cleaning these vintage and old timer model aircraft plans to get them into a usable format. Currently, it is also used to credit people simply for uploading the plan to a forum on the internet. Which is not quite the same thing. This will change soon. Probably.

Scaling

This model plan (like all plans on Outerzone) is supposedly scaled correctly and supposedly will print out nicely at the right size. But that doesn't always happen. If you are about to start building a model plane using this free plan, you are strongly advised to check the scaling very, very carefully before cutting any balsa wood.
