BIGGEST ARF
 
Hi Guys our club is looking for a ARF with 100" wing or more and can take a gas motor for glider tows and filming and candy drops. The bigger the better any idea's. Thanks. Mark,

Hangar 9 TOC Ultimate. 46% scale or so. Not sure if it is the biggest but it has to come close.

Maybe the Sig Rascall 110", too. guy in our club has one with a Zenoah G26 and it flies great. Looks like it would work fine for glider towing....

Thanks guy for the suggestions the big modeltech cub looks promising we have one of the vmar beavers and the quality is terrible. Mark,

Mike, are there any of those flying? I have not heard any flight reports or seen any vids yet.. Very cool plane though.

There are only a couple out there right now but the owners are working on other projects. Mine will arrive RTF so it shouldnt be long after it gets here that I get lots of pics and video.

Joebob's right with the 110" rascal. It has a 9lb payload (according to SIG). First place 1.3 bolts right on and the dang thing just wants to keep flying even after you shut it down for landing.
