RBC Gloster G40 90mm Kit

The Gloster E.28/39 (also referred to as the Gloster Whittle, Gloster Pioneer, or Gloster G.40) was the first British turbojet-engined aircraft, first flying in 1941. It was the third turbojet aircraft to fly after the German Heinkel He 178 (1939) and Heinkel He 280 (1941).

This easy-to-build kit will create a great-looking jet that is easy to repair.  The RBC kit features a construction of balsa, plywood, and ABS plastic to make an easy-to-build/repair kit that has great flying characteristics. The kit contains all parts CNC cut, including all wood to finish the Gloster G40.  A large, clear CAD drawing is also included, as well as a vacuum-formed canopy and nose cone. Features a large top hatch for easy access to the battery and receiver area.

Decals not included in kit.
