Stardust Special 76" 35 - 45 Size Vintage

Regular price $143.50 Sale

Designed by Don Proggini in 1940, the Stardust Special is another in our range of gorgeous looking vintage aircraft, featuring our own full scale plan. We have also simplified the fuselage construction by including upper fuselage formers to make the triangular fuselage shape a simple build.

At a 76" span the model can be entered in a variety of Vintage Events, or just build one to stooge around the sky at your local club.

Short Kit Or Complete Airframe Kit?

A Short Kit includes a full size printed plan and all of the laser cut parts that are required as part of the complete airframe build.

Items such as wing ribs, dihedral joiners, fuselage formers & fuselage parts, doublers, bulkheads and so on.

Every part which is a complex cut is precisely laser cut as per the plan and included in the short kit. Some kits may also include vacuum formed ABS parts like canopies or cowlings.

With a Short Kit, the only items you need to add to the laser cut parts to build a complete airframe are components which are simply cut to length. Parts such as wing spars, wing sheeting or fuselage sheeting for example.




A Complete Airframe Kit includes the Laser Cut Short Kit, plus the entire list of additional materials required to complete the airframe build.

Select this option when adding to your cart to purchase all of the materials required to complete the airframe build.

Every kit includes a full size printed plan, and where available the designers original construction notes. The kits do not include miscellaneous hardware such as pushrods, control horns, hinges, wheels etc.
