So what's so special about our ARTF's?

All our models are designed by a world renowned British company

The most accurate scale ARTF's available in this price range

Composite Fuselage for scale detail and strength

Un-like other ARTF's they have specialised quality covering, seamlessly spray painted to give colour matched cowl and mouldings.

Custom graphic art work pre-applied during the production process, not glossy stickers like other ARTF's.

To prevent the decals from lifting the complete airframe is sealed with a two pack clear coat.

Custom formulated film with anti tear properties used on the flying surfaces helps keep wrinkling to a minimum.

Specially designed wing geometry for excellent low speed, almost unstalable handling.

 

A little history... A low wing fully-aerobatic two seat trainer, the R.2160 features dual 'stick-controls' and bubble canopy making it ideal for learning aerobatics. Because of its ability it can be quite often found at many aero clubs being used as an aerobatic trainer.

It is rated to +6g and -3g which is more than adequate for all but the highest level of competition.

The Robin R2160A is an all metal, low wing, aerobatic monoplane. It is powered by a 160hp (120kW) Lycoming O320D engine. It is stressed to +6 -3g and has a MTOW of 900kg. There is also a fuel injected model (R160Ai) and a non-aerobatic 120hp trainer (R120T).

These aircraft were originally designed by Pierre Robin and manufactured by Apex Aircraft but the type certificate has since been obtained by a New Zealand company called Alpha Aviation. This company had all the manufacturing jigs shipped to New Zealand and began deliveries of new build aircraft in July 2006. The type designations (R2160A, etc.) remain the same.
