Funcub XL More than just fun – its huge fun! - 214331
If youre in need of a model for all occasions, they rarely come
more versatile than this. Glider towing, parachute and toffee dropping,
water flying, and even full-house aerobatics, the FunCub XL does
it all, with style and good looks
Product Description
A large multi-function high-wing aerobatic tug, that
doubles as a versatile sportster cum sport aerobat,
the FunCub XL boasts an incredible short take-off and
landing (STOL) capability and, what's more, with its
large, soft, tundra tyres it copes with any terrain,
and can be flown just about anywhere. Truth is, the
kit version of this all-purpose hack will not only
delight you with its performance, but its high-level
of pre-fabrication, too.
To fly the model you will need a minimum seven-channel radio control system, a suitable receiver, six Hitec HS-225 BB servos, the FunCub XL power set and two 3S LiPo batteries of 3200 mAh capacity. The Elapor model features some beautifully subtle detailing, including very elegant LED covers for the optional lighting system which, as you can imagine, is a real eye-catcher. Also included, as standard, is an aero-tow release and a large load bay for which a matching parachutist (# 852004) is also available. Note that if you wish to use the supplementary functions, you will need a radio control system with at least ten channels.
A series of very sophisticated design details are a
distinctive feature of the FunCub XL, which sets new
standards in its class. For example, 'M-frame technology' ensures
an extremely robust fuselage, while strong, lightweight
carbon fibre tubes do the same for the wings. The aircraft
also includes offset landing flaps and struts with
quick-release fittings for fast, ultra-simple rigging
at the field.
