Avistar

40 MkII AWARF

®

(HCAA2016)

The Avistar 40 MkII gives pilots who have already mastered trainers an easy way to move up. Its semi-symmetrical airfoil offers the agility needed
to experiment with basic aerobatics, while its high-wing design provides the in-flight stability and predictable handling of a trainer.

Almost all of the assembly work is done for you. Major sections are professionally factory-built of wood for strength and easy repairability, then skillfully
covered in Top Flite

MonoKote

®

- the world's #1 film covering! You can be flying just 15-20 hours after you open the box. An extensive package of

Great Planes-brand hardware - including a fuel tank, engine mount, spinner, wheels and pushrods - is not only included but largely installed for your
convenience. Photo-illustrated instructions pave the way for rapid progress through the last few assembly steps to that fantastic first flight!

If you don’t have a lot of time to spare, Hobbico also offers the Avistar 40 Select. You can complete ALL assembly within 20 minutes, using a
screwdriver and pliers. Hobbico has already installed a 4-channel Futaba

4VF radio system and mounted a powerful O.S.

Power Point

®

Wood Propellers (TOPQ5000-5200)

• Lighter, quieter, and more efficient than ever!

• More thrust for greater power.

• Swept tip design reduces noise.

The strict quality control used when manufacturing Power Point props ensures symmetric pitch: at
any given point on one blade, the pitch will exactly match the pitch at the same point on the opposite
blade. This accuracy reduces prop vibration and boosts thrust at any rpm. Combined with a new airfoil
design and the "Power Point" tip, these props are a top choice for modelers of every skill level. Lighter
than maple props of the same size, these fuelproofed beechwood props reduce rotational mass,
letting your engine produce more power with less work. Wood construction also makes Power Point
props stiffer than nylon, so they perform predictably throughout the full rpm range.
