ON-THE-EDGE PERFORMANCE WITH ON-THE-MONEY REALISM!

There's no mistaking Matt Chapman's Embry-Riddle ride, and no closer match to it in looks an performance than the Great Planes 1/3 scale Eagle 580 ARF! Pounds lighter to push the envelope wider, the Eagle 580 1/3 scale ARF boasts an authentic trim scheme, from the licensed Embry-Riddle livery to the pilot's 3-color helmet. Designed for optimal flight and performance potential in the air, it also reduces assembly time on the bench!

• The only IMAA/IMAC airplane with a licensed Embry-Riddle trim scheme!
• Features a performance-optimized airframe built from strong, light-weight wood and weight-saving fiberglass parts.
• Includes a complete set of hardware, custom-designed for giant-scale flight.
• The canopy doubles as a convenient hatch that lifts off for fast access to the wing panel bolts and onboard radio equipment.
• Hinge point hinges in the stab and wings are already installed to improve strength and precision without extra work. A servo for each elevator half, and dual servos for the rudder and ailerons provide swift, powerful response.
• Double-beveled control surfaces make the best use of each ounce-per-inch of torque giving impressive 3D maneuvers, precision aerobatics or just everyday sport flying.
• Both gas power options offer stand-out performance with the ease of bolt-in installation. The fiberglass cowl is spacious enough to accommodate a lightweight 85 cc single, chosen for its power-to-weight advantage, or a 100 cc twin with canister-style mufflers.
• A two-piece wing and stab design offers equal measures of performance strength and transportation convenience.

"I'm really thrilled with how accurately Great Planes reproduced the trim scheme of my Eagle 580 on their models. As an R/C pilot and IMAC competitor myself, I enjoy flying them almost as much as the full-size aircraft!"
