Features

Assembly takes as little as 15-20 hours. The built-up wood airframe arrives with Top Flite^® MonoKote^® covering expertly factory-applied. Also included are a painted pilot figure, nylon spinner, and complete Great Planes hardware.

The durable, lightweight fiberglass cowl and wheel pants arrive professionally painted to duplicate the look of Matt Chapman’s full-scale airplane. The supplied nylon spinner is also colored to blend perfectly with the cowl.

To recreate the aerobatic precision of a Matt Chapman airshow performance, the CAP 580 ARF takes advantage of the power and authority of dual aileron servos — an arrangement that has the additional bonus of easy control linkage set-up.

Mid-size aerobatics with attitude!

American Airlines Captain Matt Chapman spends weekends thrilling crowds with the action-packed aerobatics of his colorful CAP 580. Now you can do the same at R/C airfields with this sport-scale ARF model of his famous aircraft — officially licensed and available ONLY from Great Planes!

Flies well with a 2-stroke .46-.61 engine — and with a 4-stroke from the upper end of its displacement range, performs almost any aerobatic maneuver.

Includes a generous package of high-quality, Great Planes-brand hardware.

Radio compartment provides plenty of room for effortless installation of your 4+ channel system’s on-board components.

“I’m thrilled at how Great Planes captured the excitement of my one-of-a-kind paint scheme on their CAP 580 model. Whether I’m spending my Sunday flying at an airshow for a crowd of 250,000…flying my Great Planes CAP 580 at my local field with my friends…or competing at an IMAC event, the thrill is the same”
