The Aero L-39 Albatros is a high-performance jet trainer aircraft developed in Czechoslovakia to meet requirements for a 'C-39' (C for cvièný - trainer) during the 1960s to replace the L-29 Delfín. It was the first of the second-generation jet trainers, and the very first turbofan-powered trainer produced.
This neat jet has all molded foam construction with lots of panel detail and a very smooth finish. Total assembly time is about one hour due to the low parts count and beautiful fit.
The 64mm fan includes an OUTRUNNER motor that provides lots of thrust for quick takeoffs with a strong climbout. Full aerobatic characteristics; inside loops, outside loops, axial rolls, inverted flight, knife edge, stall turns, hammerheads, and spins are possible. Great plane for intermediate pilot who’s ready for the next level in radio control planes.
The main landing gear are installed without using any tools and only one allen screw installs the nose wheel steering. Model can be flown either off a runway with the included landing gear or it is easily hand launched. Flight times are about 5 minutes using the included 3 cell.
