RTF SIG Akromaster..RED#0 source
LAST EDITED ON May-16-03 AT 10:01 AM (CDT)
 
One of our Club members generously donated this BRAND NEW, NEVER FLOWN SIG Akromaster, complete with brand new engine and tank! This plane was built by Walter Umland, and is covered with red monocoat. The engine is a rear nva OS 25. The funds generated will go to the GSCB Field Improvement Fund.... I am offering this model, complete and ready to fly, for less than the plane alone cost our kind member! I figure that we really ought to have $225.00 for it, shipped via insured UPS.
These are good flying, fun airplanes...and your payment will help the Club.
I just verified that the engine is, indeed, an OS .25 LA.... too much power is never enough.

See Ya

Comparing the tank size (looks like a modern version of the Perfect Wedgetank) to the engine height, it looks more like a 15; at roughly 240 square inches or so, not exactly well matched to any 25! The LA 25 I have here is roughly equal in power, if not more than that, to a typical pre-Schneurle CL 35 sport/stunt engine.

(Unless that tank is a lot wider than a Perfect, in which case we have here a bit of a speed demon and a seriously nose-heavy model.)

Rich,
Are those WASHERS under the engine to achieve out thrust?
