When the Champion Aircraft Corporation introduced the mildly aerobatic Citabria (airbatic ? spelled backwards) in 1964 pilots fell in love with its handling and flight envelope but it wasn?t long before they craved an aircraft with even more potential. Capable of sustaining stresses of +5 to -2g ?outside? maneuvers were simply not possible so Champion set about designing something to satisfy. Rolling off the production line in 1970 the 8KCAB Decathlon was capable of sustaining aerobatic stresses of between +6g and -5g and, accordingly, was an instant hit.
This 79? XTREME DECATHLON ARF is produced by SEAGULL MODELS. It was designed with the intermediate/advanced sport scale in mind. It is a semi-scale high-wing airplane that is easy to fly and quick to assemble. The airframe is conventionally built using balsa, and plywood to make it stronger than the average ARF, yet the design allows the airplane to be kept light. You will find that most of the work has been done for you already. The motor mount has been fitted and the hinges are pre-installed. Flying the DECATHLON is fun and the plane allows many aerobatic figures.
