Giant Thunder Stick Aerobatic Sport 96.5" 50-65cc, ARF Kit
This kit is in the "classic" red and white Ugly Stick livery
The Seagull Models "GIANT THUNDER STICK" is a bonus-sized sport/aerobatic design stick based on the beloved classic Ugly Stick, enjoyed by RC airplane hobbyists for decades. This design scales beautifully from park flyers to enormous giant-scale sizes, ideal for intermediate and advanced pilots.
The GIANT THUNDER STICK delivers strong sport aerobatic performance using gasoline or electric power with the included conversion mount. Designers included the classic round rudder to honor the original design while enhancing dynamic flight. The airframe is constructed from balsa, plywood, and carbon fiber — strong yet lightweight — and covered with genuine Oracover / Ultracote and pre-cut graphics.
