In the world of full-scale homebuilt aircraft one of the hottest new designs is the Radial Rocket TD. This small two-seat airplane is all-composite construction with a 25.5 ft. wingspan. With a 360 hp radial engine the flight performance is HOT! How about a 230 mph cruise speed and 3500+ feet per minute climb – WOW! Like the full-scale airplane, Seagull’s Radial Rocket ARF is a real attention getter on the ground and in the air. The nostalgic color scheme is Radial Rocket #105, which competes at the Reno Air Races in the Sportsman class. With a broad flight envelope and smooth aerobatic performance, the Radial Rocket can put some real excitement in your R/C hobby.
