Additional Informations - Topmodel ECOTOP SCALE Série Mode D'emploi

THANK YOU for your purchase of our semi-scale aircraft Pilatus PC-6 Turbo Porter ARF !
We made a main effort while drawing and building this plane so that it is the best model you ever built and fly. We provide you a kit
with the highest quality and the best possible performances.
We wish you a great success while assembling and flying your new Pilatus PC-6 Turbo Porter ARF.
Often called the "Flying Jeep", the Pilatus PC-6 flew for the first time in 1959 and the early series were equipped with piston engines.
His rugged airframe will be later equipped with turboprop engines, initially with Turboméca Astazou 523 HP and then, on the most
famous version, with a Pratt & Whitney PT6A delivering 650 or 750 HP. This utility aircraft is best known for his use by skydiving
centers, were it may take 9-10 jumpers to 4000 m within 15 minutes and is able to be back to ground within 3 minutes only. It has been
used for a wide range of uses, cargo, STOL transport aircraft, water bomber or gunship .
The model offers the same capacity of short takeoffs and landings and is particularly handy and easy to fly. It flies like a big trainer.
The damped landing gear and tail wheel, fitted with wheels of large diameter, allows the use of rugged grass strips.
For this third version of the kit, we optimized the fuselage to make it easy to install either a gas engine or an electric motor. A hatch on
the nose provides easy access to the tank or to the battery packs.
