Seagull 68.5in Seagull Loaded Dice
F3A Pattern Ship
A UK championship-winning F3A aerobatic ship of the '90s presented in ARTF form with all the benefits of Seagull's superb manufacturing and quality standards.
As four times UK National F3A Aerobatic Champion and winner of countless other national F3A competitions, it's fair to say that Loaded Dice designer Terry Westrop knew a thing or two about producing beautifully user-friendly yet aerodynamically accurate pattern aerobatic models. Between 1986 and 1997 he was the man to beat and his competition winning aeroplane was this elegant, smooth-flying machine that not only found favour with purist competition pilots of the day, it was enjoyed by club pilots in equal measure.
A wonderful tribute to both the man, his ambition and his well documented success, Seagull's Dice is not only light and strong,
its build quality and reproduction colour scheme make it a massively appealing prospect for lovers of graceful flight, effortless aerobatics
and the retro R/C scene.
A cliche it may be but this one truly flies like it's on rails. Pure aerobatics don't get much crisper or easier to perform
and we haven't even mentioned the practicality of this model's 2-piece plug-in wings, plug-in tailplane and fixed undercarriage option. It
was a head-turner 35 years ago and it's still making people look today. It was a head-turner 35 years ago and its still making people look
