  Important note: please check with the local R/C club before operating your
  radio equipment. Signals from your radio system could interfere with other
  R/C modelers in the area. You may also contact the AMA (Academy of Model-
  Aeronautics) for a club nearest you.

  Park Flyers are small enough to fly in almost any open space near your home
    such as football fields, parks, school gymnasiums or even a back yard.
These planes are also convenient to transport, fitting easily into a back seat.
  They are capable of incredible slow-speed flight, giving first-time pilots
           maximum reaction time and a head start towards success.

FEATURES: Lazer cut balsa construction
          Semi-Symmetrical airfoil
          Option to build in ailerons for more maneuverability
          Complete, detailed plans and instruction manual ease kit construction
          Quick to build and cover; a one day job for experienced builders, or
            a weekend project for beginners.
          Strong enough to withstand less-than-perfect landings, yet so light
            that all-up weight barely reaches one pound.
          Landing gear included (hand or ground takeoff)(see COMMENTS)

          Weight is critical on small, lightweight electric models such as this
            Model's performance will be noticeably increased by hand-launching
            and smooth surface landing.
          NOTE: servos & battery are internally mounted.
