The DH 82A Tiger Moth, one of the nicest aircraft ever built, and what better way to pay homage to this awesome design than to produce our most extensive laser cut short kit yet! Based on the very well engineered and beautifully drawn plan by Farooq Ahmad, this 70" DH 82A Tiger Moth will fly gracefully with a 90 size four stroke or equivalent electric.
Clearly there was a lot of thought put into the engineering and build of this model by the designer, and we have accurately re-drawn, tested and laser cut every necessary component from light balsa through to strong ply, and the result is our most extensive laser cut kit yet! We were so pleased with the results, we wanted to make this model gorgeous, so we even completed the kit by including a fitted vacuum formed cowl and corrugated fuel tank parts, and a complete package of laser cut mild steel components for all the fixtures and fittings. We are truly proud of this kit!
