The 303 airliner is a technical model with many parts and is not a beginners model. This is not a ARTF, nor is it a 'foamy' kit. Construction will keep you busy for some time.

Size Wingspan 42" (1062 mm), length 41" (1055 mm)

Weight Ranging 985 -1100g (2.1 - 2.4 lb) depending on setup, wing loading 58-65g/dm (19.3-21.6 oz/sq ft). You should be aiming for AUW not to exceed 1100g (and preferably lower) with a minimum thrust weight ratio not less than 38%.

Wings Five piece design built up as one complete wing, Clark-Y section, CNC cut styrene, carbon spars, wing area 1.8 Sq. ft. Wing upper surface is plastic covered with gap-less aileron hinging.

Control surfaces All moving tail plane, outboard ailerons and steerable nose wheel.

U/C Fixed with steerable nose wheel. The rear U/C is supplied twelve 1.25" foam wheels. The model will require a smooth runway. 
 
DecalsA standard set are supplied that includes the fuselage and cockpit decals. It is left up to the modeller to design their own airliner livery decals.

Construction  A comprehensive manual is provided showing step by step assembly. The kit comprises a combination of traditional construction techniques and new EDFmodel assembly techniques. The result is a model with spare part replacement abilities and a good improved impact resistance rating. There are no wooden parts in this model.
