Monocoupe 90A
Speed and Comfort for the Common Man
In the late 19020’s , Don A. Luscombe’s Monocoupe introduced affordable and
convenient performance to the light airplane market. Previously, this market was
dominated by large, expensive, open-cockpit biplanes. The Monocoupe was compact and
offered a closed cabin for comfort and convenience. The reverse curve of the fuselage
became one of the signature characteristics of this family of sporty planes. Much lighter
and cleaner than other aircraft of the time, the Monocoupes were also popular for racing.
The longer and wider Model 90 was introduced in 1930, the A version having a 90hp
Lambert R-266 radial engine.
Our Monocoupe is designed for a 30mm outrunner and 3S 3300mAhr flight pack.
Extensive use of laser cutting and self aligning structure provides a straight and light
airframe with operational flaps.
