More Choices? Less Assembly? No Problem.
 Great Planes has made a welcome addition to the concept of compact electric park flyers: more assembly convenience!
With a Park Flyer ARF, prep time shrinks to just 10-12 hours and prep work is reduced to simple assembly and straightforward progress.
Fuselage construction and finishing have been replaced by lightweight molded foam components that arrive assembled, painted and ready for decaling. Balsa reinforcements inside add much to structural strength but virtually nothing to all-up weight. Slide-in wings and stabs offer the same ultralight construction. That holds the all-up weight of Park Flyers to less than a pound—a fact which boosts and extends performance, and minimizes weight-related damage on impact.
The common ease, economy and performance of electric power and a growing diversity in styles and skill levels make Great Planes Park Flyer ARFs a natural choice for quality-minded fliers everywhere.
Always check with your local R/C club before flying. Signals from your system could interfere with other R/C modelers in the area. Contact the Academy of Model Aeronautics for a club near you.

Its undercambered wing offers stability and stall-resistance at the slowest speeds, and newcomers the best chance of flying success.
