Hi Everyone,

I am helping a friend sell off some kits. Was wondering if anyone recognizes the following ARF. It looks to be a 40 size copy of the Great Planes 'U Can Do'. (might be a little smaller than 40 size) There is no paperwork in the kit and no markings/labeling on the outside of the cardboard box.

Thanks in Advance,

Paul D.

Hi

Check Ebay, looks like one of the China made ARFs they sell there. Possibly made by Aeromax

Thanks for the responses. Yes, it does look like a knockoff of a Sig Mayhem. I wonder if the paint scheme on the underside is as close as the top side is to the Mayhem. There was packaging newspaper with the plane (either in Japanese or Chinese).

I was hoping to identify the exact manufacturer of the Arf to track down an assembly manual. Everything is pretty much straightforward for a knowledgeable Arf assembler; however, had one other question. If you look at the landing gear, it is bent 5/32" stock wire. I looked at the underside of the fuse and wings and saw nowhere where the landing gear wire could plug into a landing gear block. The kit at the moment is at my friends house(1/2 hour away), but I would almost bet that the wrong landing gear was placed in the kit. I am more used to seeing bent flat plate aluminum for attaching the landing gear on a model such as this. Anyways, this is another reason I was hoping to see pics of this exact kit or an assembly manual. Assembler is going to have to feel where to cutout the covering for servo mounting, etc.

Still looking for the manufacturer.

Thanks,
Paul D.
