Arcus [ahr-kuhs] A low, horizontal cloud formation associated with the leading edge of thunderstorm outflow (i.e., the gust front).
A new storm is on the horizon. The Hobby King Arcus F3A biplane is on the leading edge of model design with premium features, ease of assembly, and precision flight characteristics in mind.
Requiring no glue to assemble, the all EPO airframe simply bolts and snaps together. On this model it's all in the details that sets it apart from other foamies. Pushrods feature ball links on the control horns for precision, bind free movement. The multi-color decals come pre-applied saving you time and trouble. Accessing the receiver and battery is easy thanks to the magnetically secured hatch. Should you need to access the motor, even the molded plastic cowl is secured with magnets. Rugged aluminum landing gear, light weight foam wheels and molded wheel pants round out the Arcus. Due to the low parts count and no glue design, the Arcus can be assembled and ready to fly in around 30 minutes.
Flying the Arcus is a treat. The long tail moment, combined with light wing loading and ample power give you a stable, predicably flying model. Take off requires little to no rudder input. Rolls are crisp thanks to the ball links on the pushrods and slave struts. With plenty of power on tap, the Arcus will loop from here to the moon. The large propeller provides ample braking action in the downlines to avoid over speeding. If you like doing knife edges, the Arcus is where its at. No roll or pitch coupling here. Just apply a touch of rudder, control the throttle to your pleasing, and the Arcus will knife edge until the cows come home. Finally, when the time comes, throttle back, and the Arcus settles in to a nice sink rate for a perfect 3-point landing every time.*
