Spotlight: Top Flite Mini Contender EP ARF

The original Top Flite Contender made its debut over 40 years ago. Thousands of pilots have honed their skills flying this classic aerobat. Now, the legacy lives on in the 36" span Mini Contender EP ARF. An ultra-thick airfoil allows an ultra-wide flight envelope, so it's just as adept at slow and steady flight as it is wild, full-throttle aerobatics. It also features all-wood construction, with selected parts factory-covered in MonoKote film. A one-piece wing also helps minimize assembly time. Best of all, it delivers exceptional performance -- even with economical electronics.
