NZ$230.42

Another pretty classic from the 1930's returns, with Ben Shereshaw's Mercury 72" Vintage model.

Designed originally in the 1930's as a free flight model, running a vintage spark ignition motor. We have modified the tail surfaces and provided supplements to the original plan to allow you to easily build a full function 3 channel RC version. Also included are some MDF jigs to simplify construction of the aircraft's pretty curves.

The Mercury can be stooged around the sky by any beginner on a 35 or 45 size two stroke.

We do production runs daily, so any kitset will generally ship within 1 to 2 working days. We ship locally or worldwide, with worldwide delivery generally between 7 to 21 days. All pricing on this web site is in New Zealand dollars.

If you are visiting from overseas see our International Web Site hangaronekits.com for pricing in US Dollars & other currencies with swift worldwide shipping options.
