Help to ID Cessna 182 kit maker
 

Does anybody know the maker of this kit. I got it a couple of weeks ago at a RC flea market.
Now I'm trying to find a window kit for it but don't know the kit manufacturer. It has a 66.5 Wing Span. Wing is foam core and covered with 1/16 in. balsa sheet. Fuse is fiberglass with a bone like structure to reinforce it inside - it looks like a built up profile fuse running down the middle with normal formers attached to it. Any info will help.

That's an old Sig kit from the 80's. The fuselage should be ABS, though. They haven't made it for many years.

Thanks for the quick response and info. I had a feeling it was out of production. The fuse probably is ABS.

I have to retract that. On thinking about it, I remembered that Sig's was a 150, not a 182. I'm afraid I haven't a clue what you have there.

jrf-- You were right the first time. I was wrong, just found one on ebay. It is a Sig Kwik Bilt Cessna 172 Skyhawk. Not a 182. Thanks

That's my first mistake this year. I thought I was wrong but I wasn't. :)

Thank you. I have the same kit that I was trying to ID. The wingspan is 66.5 and the fuse is appox 43" do the wings have struts?
