The Banshee is built in wood according to the original building documents. The electric version is completely covered with original Oracover (Ultracote), the Nitro version is the wooden fuselage covered with a 15gram fiberglass mat and painted nitro-proof. Wings and tail wings are covered with Oracover. This cover is well known for its longevity and good looks.

High quality flight hardware is included in the ARF, but electronics, retracts, and drive are not but are offered as optional extras.

Our Classic Pattern Design retracts are intended and optimised for use in the model.

The plane is a flying challenge, it has a wide-ranging flying speed and very fast at full throttle. The flying of this plane is a lot of fun! Ballistic Pattern from the ballistic pattern era.
