Replica competition new coloring model joins Kyosho’s beginner-friendly lineup of high-performance trainers!
This new addition to the Kyosho Calmato α 40 lineup exhibits an optimal balance of flying stability and direct control response, ideal for flight training. The Calmato reacts calmly to severe control inputs and maintains its posture even with unexpected stalls at low speed to create the best early flying experience for beginner flyers. Film covering is upgraded from PVC to superior quality reverse-side printed Toughlon which delivers both improved durability and lighter weight. Urethane clear coating can also be applied to prevent wrinkling over long time periods and unlike PVC films, dry-type cover film can also be applied for damage repairs. The fuselage features the Calmato’s unique EP/GP convertible design that requires no gluing to dramatically reduce assembly time. Popular red coloring pattern allows coloring on upper and lower surfaces to be changed to improve visibility when flying. The exquisite finish replicates competition model standards and provides beginners and existing Calmato Alpha owners with the 1 model to enjoy all aspects of R/C airplane flying.
*Superior stability and direct control response provides an ideal introduction to R/C airplane flight.
*Covered in lightweight printed Toughlon film that is more resistant to wrinkling and sagging than PVC film.
*Convertible design allows choice of preferred power source, electric motor (EP) or gas engine (GP).
*Glueless design requires no adhesives to complete.
*Main wing halves are joined by aluminum pins and can be separated for easy transportation.
*Vertical stabilizer, servo bed, aileron and rudder are all pre-installed.
*Use of 4-cell 14.8V Li-Po battery enables powerful flight.
*Lightweight structure of the balsa fuselage provides calm and easy flight characteristics.
*Equipped with rudder-linked movable nose gear.
*Flexible pipe linkage rods for rudder and elevator are pre-installed.
*Includes pre-installed fuel tank.
*Includes spinner, linkage parts set and lightweight sponge tires.
Advanced glow fuel resistant printed Toughlon film covering is more resistant to wrinkling and sagging than normal PVC film.
Convertible design allows either electric motor or glow fuel engine to be used as power source. If you prefer quiet flight with no oil mess, choose the EP specification.
If you like the sound of the exhaust note and feeling the power of an engine, choose the GP specifications.
Main wing halves are joined with aluminum pins, and independent left & right aileron servos enable compact transportation.
