The Giant 1/4 Scale Super Chipmunk ARF brings legendary aerobatic performance and precision scale craftsmanship to your flying field. Designed for 60–76cc gas engines, this aircraft delivers exceptional aerobatic capability while preserving the unmistakable lines, charm, and character of the original de Havilland Super Chipmunk.
At Aerobertics, we value both performance and scale realism. The Giant Super Chipmunk is a perfect blend of precision engineering, durable construction, and stunning visual appeal, designed to thrill pilots who demand accuracy, responsiveness, and reliability in every flight.
Why You’ll Love It:
- Precision Airframe: Built from premium balsa and plywood, reinforced with carbon-fiber tubes in the fuselage and wings, plus fiberglass laminate plates at critical areas. This increases torsional rigidity, impact resistance, and long-term durability without adding unnecessary weight.
- Scale-Accurate Control: Large ailerons deliver exceptional roll authority, while working scale flaps allow smooth, slow landings and preserve authentic flight characteristics. Flaps feature strong fiberglass control horns for durability.
- Pre-Prepared Linkages: Turnbuckle-style pushrods, ball links, and a pull-pull rudder system come ready to install, ensuring smooth, precise control from the first flight.
- Robust Landing Gear: Fixed main gear with CNC oleo struts and 5″ PU wheels for realistic scale appearance. CNC aluminum tail gear with carbon-fiber support ensures precise ground handling.
- Easy Transport & Assembly: Plug-in wings with fast-connect hardware, removable stabilizers, and a sliding canopy hatch make setup and maintenance effortless.
- Authentic Finish: Professionally covered with genuine heat-shrink film in high-visibility two-tone schemes, including painted fiberglass cowl and wheel pants for a scale-accurate look.
- Ready for Power: Fiberglass cowl fits a wide range of engines including EME 70cc Twin, STINGER 70cc Twin, and GP 76cc Twin. 750 ml RC fuel tank with clunk weight, fill & vent nipples, and pre-installed fuel tubing ensures reliable fuel delivery.
- Lighting & Scale Details: Pre-installed wingtip LED navigation lights (strobe, landing/taxi, and tail) and a crystal-clear canopy with included pilot figure provide a realistic touch both in the air and on the ground.
