The Lunak was built in the early 50's, in
the Czech Rep.
It was used as a trainer for future jet pilots or in local clubs for sailing and
aerobatics. It had very impressive flying characteristics with a win at the World
Championship. Only 5 units are still inventoried around the world from over 200 built.
This
kit is the 1:4 scale reduction and is also the flapped version. This plane has a fixed wheel, prefitted
and painted canopy tray for nice scale. The wings are obechi sheeted foam with lots of
carbon reinforcement, which gives a safe
feeling for those looking into pure aerobatics! While
the original design is for aerobatics, it's easy and smooth handling allows nice
thermal flight and enjoyable long duration flights.
Double stage airbrakes are installed, huge fiberglass wing joiner completes this rugged wing
construction. The tail surfaces reflect the
structural construction of the original and though are also covered to close the
open surfaces, the stabilizer is plug in like the wings. The fuselage is state
of the art with some reinforcement in the tail boom for increased stiffness,
you get a great feel of solidity. All decals have already been applied.
Kit
content is a yellow painted epoxy fuselage, finished yellow covered wings, aileron and flaps are finished and hinged, airbrakes installed. Tail
surfaces are finished build-up structure and covered with yellow Oracover®,
