The Seagull Models SEA158 Glasair Sportsman G 2+2 is an ARF (Almost Ready to Fly) semi-scale RC plane kit based on the popular homebuilt Glasair Sportsman 2+2 aircraft, suited to pilots with intermediate to advanced flying experience. With a wingspan of 70.9 inches (180cm) and a flying weight of 9.5 to 11.5 lbs, this is a substantial fixed-wing model that delivers realistic general aviation flight characteristics. The airframe is built from quality balsa and plywood, keeping the structure both strong and light — a step up from the typical ARF construction you'll find at this price point. Covered in genuine UltraCote film in a ready-finished colour scheme, the Glasair Sportsman arrives looking the part straight out of the box, with a painted fibreglass cowling and wheel pants that match the covering without any additional finishing required.
Key Features
- 70.9-inch (180cm) wingspan with a wing area of 644.8 sq in, giving the model stable, scale-like flight behaviour
- Functional flaps fitted with scale pocket hinges improve both realism and flight performance during approach and landing
- Balsa and plywood airframe construction offers a stronger and lighter build than many comparable ARF models
- Painted fibreglass cowling and wheel pants are pre-finished and colour-matched to the UltraCote covering — no painting needed
