Taylorcraft
Kit FF-52 Taylorcraft is a 1/8 scale, flying model that uses the Box
and Former method of construction. This jumbo rubber powered model
is also an ideal candidate for conversion to electric or gas powered
flight. Pre-1942 design, eligible for Society of Antique Modelers
(SAM) contests. A superb flying model.
This free flight rubber powered kit contains a full-size
rolled plan, building and flying instructions, printed balsa wood,
hand-picked balsa stripwood, rubber motor, 11" Peck propeller,
nose package, clear plastic for the windshield, wheels, landing gear,
and Easy Built Lite colored tissue. You will
need a building board, pins, hobby
knife, fine sandpaper, and glue.

Customer photos:
"Here are some pictures of my much modified
Taylorcraft. The model has been converted to r/c
power using an SC .12 and 3 channel r/c (rudder, elevator and throttle)
using a Hitec 5 channel micro receiver and Tower Pro 5g servos.
The model flies like a dream with 10 minute plus flights from
a 2oz fuel tank – it will stooge around at half throttle like
a trainer but is also capable of some mild aerobatics (loops, spins,
inverted flight etc.) Some
members of my flying club remarked on the lack of a pilot in the cockpit
so I found ‘Ozzy Osbourne’ in a local novelty shop –
seems appropriate! I’m
just about to start work on a similar conversion for your 50”
Hurricane but this one will also have aileron control and retracts."
