The Xplorer is a completely new design from manufacturers NAN Model. The model was pre released to a few of the best F3J pilots in the world and their early results winning both Eurotour contest, and The F3J World Championships proves this model is currently the best you can buy. The Xplorer is available in V or X tail versions, construction is Full Carbon wing with composite fuselage and tails.
The model comes almost completely finished. The tow hook and fuselage servo tray is fitted at the factory, the brass control horns screw directly into the flaps and ailerons so there is no messing about with epoxy and micro balloons. The Quick change Ballast system is pre installed and takes a few seconds to change the weight by removing just one bolt. All hardware is included, and a full Ballast kit of 3 possible weights is available under our accessories page. You just require your R/C equipment to complete it.
