Spotlight: Great Planes Avistar Elite .46 Advanced Trainer

Available in RTF and ARF versions, the Avistar Elite is the perfect choice for progressing from basic training to aerobatics using one plane and a flight instructor's assistance. Its high wing mounting and tricycle landing gear boost your confidence by adding stability and easy ground handling. Compared to park flyers, the larger size of the Avistar Elite also improves its ability to handle windy conditions. The semi-symmetrical airfoil allows greater maneuverability whenever you're ready. Built-up wood sections, pre-hinged control surfaces and glue-free assembly combine to make the Avistar Elite flight-ready fast. The ARF comes with mounts and hardware for using glow or electric power. The RTF includes a Tactic 6-channel, 2.4GHz radio with SLT, and an installed O.S. 46AX II engine with installed fuel tank and lines, plus propeller, spinner and "AA" transmitter batteries.
