The Great Planes Matt Chapman Eagle 580 .46-.81 GP/EP ARF is designed to accept glow or electric power and it offers dramatic 3D potential with the looks of an air show favorite – all in a popular .46 size! The Eagle showcases Great Planes’ finest ARF construction with the main assemblies arriving built and covered, the control surfaces (except the rudder) pre-hinged and the cockpit complete with an installed pilot bust. Featuring minimal weight and assembly time, the Eagle 580 shows mounting set-ups for glow or brushless electric power and the distinctive Embry-Riddle trim scheme will have everyone’s attention.
- There’s plenty of room in the Eagles 580’s fuselage to install on-board equipment. Powerful magnets secure the hatch but allow easy removal and reattachment.
- The foam-core, balsa-sheeted wing and stabilizer halves slide together onto carbon fiber joiner tubes, aligning automatically. Assembly is easy and epoxy-free.
- The tail control surfaces are airfoiled for crisp, clean flight performance. All control surfaces are large for 3D maneuvers.
