Our kits are designed for the serious modeller with a little advanced knowledge.
The 307 is a technical model with many parts. The construction methodology used in our models is unique in the modelling industry. Our method provides a model that is easy to maintain with the ability for part replacement.
Construction A comprehensive manual is provided showing step-by-step assembly. There are no wooden parts in this model. You will be required to have some basic
workshop engineering skills such as being able to use a drill press and tap threads. Construction is a solid project which will keep you busy for 4 - 6 weeks depending upon your skill level. All surface finishing material is provided with the exception of paint.
All hardware such as nuts, bolts, and control rods are provided in the kit.The 307 is a "work-in-progress"
model. For this reason EDFmodel reserves the right to alter design specifications without notice.

Fuselage
The fuselage shells are vacuum molded. The fuselage shell is loosely assembled to formers and a carbon chassis. Upon impact the shell can move slightly to absorb some forces. The model is either handled under the wings or at those points along the fuselage with
formers.

Fans & nacelles
The 307 nacelles are designed to fit the WeMoTec Midi fan (90mm intake diameter, 5 mm motor shaft adapter). The nacelles are designed for easy maintenance with a good impact strength. This has certainly proved itself
in test flights.

Wings
Five piece design built up as one complete wing, Clark-Y section, CNC cut styrene, carbon spars, wing area 5.4 Sq. ft. Wing upper surface is plastic covered with gap-less aileron hinging.
Control surfaces All moving tail plane and outboard ailerons.

Retractable undercarriage
The 307 is supplied with twelve rear 1.5" foam main wheels and two 1-1/4" nose wheels. This combination will easily take-off from well trimmed
grass (as illustrated in flight videos April 2007).
The kit is designed to accept Robart mechanical retracts, which are required to be purchased separately. The main wheels retract into a wheel bay. The kit includes all components
required to assemble the Robart retract units.
The retract door mechanism designs are left to the individual modeller as a completely separate design project, not covered in the manual.

Decals
A standard set are supplied that includes the fuselage doors, windows and the cockpit windows. It is left up to the modeller to design their own airliner livery
decals. |

Transportation to the airfield
The one piece wing and fuselage will easily fit in a family wagon car (rear seats down).
