Aerobatic Aircraft - PilotRC - EXTRA NG-78 - (approx. 1.97m) - green grey white

The Pilot-RC Extra NG 78″ is a radio-controlled aircraft designed for precision aerobatics and 3D flight. With a wingspan of 1.97 m and a wing area of 7,847 cm², it is intended to be powered by a 30 to 40 cc gasoline engine or an equivalent electric motor.

Its airframe combines a wooden structure with composite elements to reinforce the fuselage and wings. The model features Pilot-RC's quick-release system for the wings, stabilizer, SFG, and canopy. This design makes assembly at the field, transport, and battery access in an electric configuration easier.

The wings and stabilizer are removable. The aileron and elevator hinges are factory-installed, glued, and pinned. The engine mounting position is laser-engraved, while the engine cowl is attached from the inside, leaving no visible screws on the outside.

The open structure makes it easier to install a canister-type muffler. The rudder control uses a pull-pull system to ensure a direct connection with the servo.
