The model performs very realistically when powered by a .23 engine. Larger engines up to .35 can be installed for some peppy flying. Despite its one-color paint job, the Beechcraft biplane is an excellent candidate for super scale details. Our craft sports a complete cockpit, navigation lights and illuminated instrument panel. Optional, of course. The illustrations are for the benefit of those interested in these details.
To us the most beautiful and distinctive private flyers' production aircraft is the negative stagger Beechcraft biplane. Making their appearance in the early thirties, these craft were improved and refined until the model G17S emerged as the ultimate in performance and appearance.
For years, these neat biplanes established records and won numerous races. On many occasions, the Beechcraft 17s outflew specially designed racers with far greater horsepower. Thank You for Looking
