Tipsy
Nipper: 1/4 Scale Description:
Fully IMAA legal...and you can throw it completely assembled into your hatchback!
Build a great-flying model of this memorable and miniscule Belgian homebuilt
from the '50s. Short tail moment and huge wing area mean turn-in-a-wingspan
maneuverability, and the thin semi-symmetrical airfoil lets it rocket around
at full bore like a racer, yet slows right down  like
a mid-wing trainer for easy landings. Rugged, too, for those high-G pullouts
and botched crosswind landings. This adorable little whipper-snapper will
fast become your favorite sport ship! A bit more challenging to build: if
you're a beginner, wait 'till you've built two or three powered models before
you give it a go. It makes an ideal first scale project.Kit contains all balsa, basswood, and plywood for airframe, ready-to-use diecut ribs, formers, and the like, huge vacuum-formed canopy and fiberglass engine cowl, sturdy pre-formed landing gear, basic hardware pack, 4' x 5' plan sheet, and complete instructions.

Scale Ju-87G Conversion Kit The late-model Stuka has endured as one of World War II’s classic aircraft—iconic
of the catastrophic battles between the two demonic titans in the Soviet
Union during 1943-44. This kit will offer the opportunity to convert Flying
Styro’s excellent Ju-87D (Google "flying styro Ju-87" to find
suppliers of this kit) into the more menacing tank-busting, cannon-armed
“G” version. Kit consists of vacuformed cannon pods and muzzle brakes,
aluminum gun barrels and mounting hardware, balsa internal structure for
super light weight, and comprehensive instructions. Cannon pods are easily
removable (model will fly with them installed) if desired, and are easily
retrofitted to a completed model. " For non-US modellers or those purchasing with a check or money order: please contact me at ryan@realkits.com for special arrangements.
