Default Seagull A6M Zero ARTF

This ARTF model from the Seagull stable is very well built. The model went together without any problems. The only slight downside is the under-carriage wire which protruded too far forward and I had to remedy this by bending the wire legs back in a vice.
Also the supplied hard foam wheels are unsuitable for flying off and landing onto grass strips so i replaced these with better quality wheels.
An S.C. 52 2-stroke is fitted with an in-cowl muffler.
Flight performance is very smooth and crisp and landings are easy. The model is a little heavy at nearly 7lbs. but she flies really well. The supplied model was silver grey so I repainted this in dark matt green with orange underneath to match the Zero training colours.
This Zero is well worth the money. Outstanding!
