Seagull has done it again with this outstanding 1/5-scale rendition of the ‘tween wars Boeing P-26 Peashooter. Famed for being the first American all-metal production fighter, the P-26 first flew in 1932 but quickly became the victim of rapid progress in aviation. Just three years after its first flight the aeroplane’s wire-braced wings, fixed landing gear and open cockpit were competing with the enclosed cockpit, retract-equipped and aerodynamically clean Curtiss P-36, Messerschmitt 109 and Hawker Hurricane. But what a fabulous subject for an unusual scale R/C model.
Built to Seagull’s usual high standards, beautifully covered and finished, and perfect for any 30cc petrol engine, or glow / electric equivalent, this is a model that has undeniable presence. With the four primary controls, inset flaps and no retracts to worry about, it’s a practical, all-occasion flier, one that any intermediate or experienced pilot will quickly fall in love with.

Designed wholly for R/C pilots who aspire to, or have achieved, aerobatic supremacy, Seagull’s new 35cc Yak 54 is an aeroplane that you won’t want to do without. Light, strong, agile and totally locked-in, there’s nothing this stunner won’t do with the right pair of fingers on the sticks. It’ll quite literally fly the book – including both covers and the blurb on the back. Anyway, you get the idea.
Perfect for intermediate flyers who are looking to develop their skills the Yak 54’s lightly loaded wing will forgive the odd mistake, whilst its tough and durable undercarriage will repel most of what’s thrown at it in the name of practice. If you’ve always dreamt of flying knife-edge circuits, high-alpha aeros or beautifully tight inverted flat spins, look no further. A pilots’ aeroplane through-and-through this 73” freestyler is not only impeccably built and covered, it’s been treated to a surfeit of quality hardware and the appearance of a thoroughbred aerobat that means business. We love it.
