Graupner,WP GILES G-202,6259

WP GILES G-202 Graupner 6259 The GILES G-202 is presently one of the worlds best aerobatic aircraft, ranking alongside the familiar EXTRA, SUKHOI and CAP types. Our model is of compact size and low all-up weight, and is capable of flying accurate aerobatics even with relatively small two-stroke motors of around 7.45 cc capacity. Aerobatic pilots demand accurate response to control commands, and this requirement is fulfilled by the GILES carefully selected airfoil and moment arms. The GILES G-202 is a very capable model which does call for prior experience with full-house power aerobatic models. Assembling the model is simply a matter of joining the two wing panels, gluing the tail panels to the fuselage, and installing the glow motor and RC components. The model is a conventional all-wood structure, i.e. fuselage, wing panels and tail panels are of strong built-up construction, adequately reinforced at highly stressed areas, and factory-covered in film. The motor cowl and wheel spats are moulded in GRP and supplied pre-painted. The rudder and elevator linkages exploit the proven Direct-Steel-System (DSS), which ensures slop-free linkages to both control surfaces - a fundamental requirement for precise aerobatics.
