I am looking for the Kyosho Cessna 188 Agwagon ARF- I cant find this thing anywhere! Any ideas from anyone? After researching this airplane, it looks like a great candidate for some REAL scale upgrades! I will pay the store price if anyone has one in the box. Thanks for any input---By the way, I did post this in the want ads as well.

IF you can find one of the orignal kits, which was a U build it, It lends it's self to more upgrading to scale. Eaiser to Modify as you build than restructure an ARF.

Added spray bar and a drop hopper in mine.

Thats sounds perfect, I thought about that but I figured the kit was older and more difficult to come by. I would love to see some pics of yours. It may have even been yours that gave me the idea. I saw a yellow one with hopper and spraybars and scale tailwheel-all the things that this airplane has to have. Thanks for the idea.

Post some pictures and add some comments. I pciked one up over the winter. I think the manufacturers are missing the boat-make 1.20 size Agwagon ARF and they sell like hotcakes!!!

Amen to that. I initially thought that it was a gas candidate and boy was I excited. Oh well, it will be a nice scale project. I will get started on it in a couple of weeks. I have a spray boom and prop pressure generator being fabricated now. Cant wait!

There was a web site for Northwest ag Aircraft. Don't know if it is still up or not. Had some really nice kits all they up to 1/4 scale I believe. Kits were from Australia if I rememeber.


Nice flying a/c saw a couple in Washington state a year ago.
