The legendary Pilot-RC Sbach 342 73”, introduced in the early 2010s, was much more than just an RC aircraft. It became an icon in the hobby world, combining a stunning modern design, exceptional all-round flight performance, and the renowned quality of Pilot-RC. Flown by some of the world’s best pilots, it left a lasting impression and remains a favourite among aerobatic enthusiasts to this day.
Now, a new generation has arrived.
The all-new Pilot RC Sbach 342 V2 75”
The Pilot RC Sbach 342 V2 brings back the spirit of the original while taking performance to a completely new level. This next-generation design perfectly blends the legendary smoothness and stability of the original 73” Sbach with the precision, agility, and aggressive capabilities demanded by today’s Xtreme Aerobatics (XA) pilots.
Designed for modern 3D and precision aerobatics, the Sbach 342 V2 has been engineered from the ground up using the latest construction techniques. The result is a lightweight, strong, and highly responsive airframe delivering outstanding flight characteristics.
The V2 features exclusive modern colour schemes:
Design #10 by Ryu Sintuphrom
Design #11 by Joe Hampson
Both schemes bring a fresh and dynamic look to this iconic aircraft.
At Aerobertics, we are proud to introduce this new generation Sbach 342 to European pilots. Combining Pilot-RC’s proven craftsmanship with cutting-edge design and the experience of top-level aerobatic pilots, this model represents the perfect balance between performance, reliability, and pure flying pleasure.
