Giant Stick 1940mm (76.4") Wingspan - ARF from Nexa - NXA1077-001
The Nexa Giant Stick 1940mm (76.4") wingspan ARF is a giant-scale sport plane built for pilots who want big, confident aerobatics without the complexity of a full scale warbird. Its simple, high-wing stick-and-tube layout has been a favorite trainer-to-aerobat airframe for decades, and this version brings that proven design to giant scale with the build quality to back it up.
Built from balsa and lite-ply construction with a two-piece wing for easy transport, the airframe arrives factory-covered and ready for final assembly, with pre-hinged control surfaces and a large battery/fuel hatch for quick access. Fixed aluminum main gear and a steerable tail wheel round out a durable, field-ready setup built to handle rough strips and hard landings alike.
Where this model stands apart is power system flexibility. The same airframe accepts a 17–20cc gas engine for pilots who want giant-scale gas power, or a high-power brushless electric system for pilots who'd rather fly electric. Either way, the Giant Stick delivers the honest, predictable sport-flying character that's made stick-style airframes a mainstay on flying fields for generations.
Features:
Nexa ARF models are constructed out of balsa wood and plywood. These are not foam models. The assembly of balsa wood ARF aircraft requires basic model building skills including the installation of servos, ESC, and motor (or gas engine). Product Specifications:
