Every effort has gone into making the SUPER Y one of the lightest high performance P-30 designs available. Each kit has been assembled from select wood for a light airframe that can meet the minimum 40 gram weight for this event. It is an excellent transition model for free flight competition and just plain fun sport flying.
The SUPER Y is a derivative of the YARDSTICK model and has been optimized for P-30 and Small Mulvihill events.
As was its predecessor, the SUPER Y was also designed in the classic stick and tissue style of an Old Time stick model, but sized to use much less rubber motor stock and perform in a smaller flying site.
The SUPER Y is intended to supersede the YARDSTICK in principle. Thus we will no longer offer the YARDSTICK as a stocked kit We will maintain the web pages for those who have already purchased the YARDSTICK and for reference purposes. As noted in the YARDSTICK page we will offer short kits of the old YARDSTICK only by special request for those who still want to build one.
The SUPER Y Full Kit includes:
- Top quality laser cut balsa and plywood parts which have been fit checked and proven prior to kit production release.
- Quality select balsa strip stock.
- All components noted on the design including the 9.5 inch Gizmo Geezer Precision Freewheeler with accessories and instructions, Badge viscous timer with actuator spring and all the finishing hardware needed to prepare the model for flight.
- CAD drawn construction drawing, instructions and Esaki tissue covering material.
- Our own Adjustable Thrust Bearing (ATB) kit, which was used for a short period of time when the Gizmo Geezer front ends were not available,
is available separately by special order. Please contact us for pricing and availability of the ATB. Both front end assemblies are shown on the plans.
SUPER Y Short Kit option:
Don’t need all the goodies? Order a SUPER Y Short Kit that includes just laser cut parts, construction drawing, instructions; you provide the strip stock and everything else required to complete the model.
