Electric Flight 03/2013


The Alien Aircraft PT-17 is 3D-CAD designed and contains laser-cut parts that use tab-and-notch construction for a fast and accurately built model. You also get two full-size computer-drawn plans, a quality hardware pack, preformed aluminum landing gear, cabane struts, and decals for either Navy or Army versions of the Stearman. Alien Aircraft also offers the kit as a Deluxe Combo that includes the kit, motor, speed control, motor mount, propeller, connectors, pushrods, and Velcro. Building the PT-17 is an enjoyable experience and you should have the model airborne within a couple of weeks. Because of the construction methods used, this would actually be a good model to build as your first kit, especially if you get the Deluxe Combo. The complete and colorful step-by-step instruction manual is in a PDF format and can be downloaded from Alien Aircraft's website.
