So pondracer we can offer following:Pond Racer 2 mot Airracer



A purebred racer. 2 engines, brought in the original with 3 times 3 liter car engines with methanol on 2×2,000 HP, this original Rutan Design flew considerable speeds. In a testflight inclination one of the engines came on fire and in the subsequent emergency landing, the machine overturned and the pilot Rick Brickert was killed. We took over the model from Manfred Topp and the model is really breathtaking. In over 21 molds, the parts are made without exception in GRP and CFRP and put together to a model which inspires the spectators on every flight day. The model can be motorized from 60 ccm up to 100 or even more ccm … we have pretty much built everything that there are engines …. 60ccm, in our opinion, but the lower engine is dar …. 75 twin spark , 90 he 1 cylinder 135 he 4 strokes, 112 he 4 cylinders or 12 KW electric with 45 cells per side …. everything had been there before …. not difficult to fly and land landing as well as easy to land.
