The Reactor has excelled under glow and electric power, as a mono-plane and a biplane. Now it
really hits the “big time” -- expanding to IMAA-legal dimensions with performance that’s better than
ever. At low speeds, the giant-scale Reactor flies solid and true. But for an all-out 3D machine,
install a 50 cc gasoline engine and increase the throws!
SPECIFICATIONS
Stock Number: GPMA1420
Wingspan: 84.5 in (2146 mm)
Wing Area: 1556 in² (100.4 dm²)
Weight RTF: 14-17 lb (6.35-7.71 kg)

Length: 85 in (2159 mm)
Engine Redquired; 2-stroke 1.6-2.2 cu in
(26-36 cc) or 4-stroke 2.0-2.2 cu in (33-36 cc)
glow engine; or 43-50 cc gasoline engine
Radio Required: 5-channel radio (6-channel
recommended); 7 servos with 100 oz.-in. (7.2
kg-cm) torque minimum (7 Futaba® S9155
and 1 Futaba S3004 recommended)
Large tail control surfaces increase the ability to fly demanding
3D aerobatics. Each of the elevator halves has its own servo, with
short, direct control linkages for dependability.
The giant-scale Reactor excels at traditional sport flying as well as
demanding, contest-worthy aerobatics. The ailerons are oversized
for aggressive maneuvering, and each has two servos for powerful
control muscle.
An ideal glow engine match for traditional sport performance is the
O.S. 1.60 FX 2-stroke. It helps maximize the model's potential by
keeping weight low while supplying excellent power.
Helping to make assembly quick and hassle-free, the radio
compartment offers a large amount of room for easy installation of
your receiver and other on-board components. To remove the hatch
cover, just remove four screws.
Stable enough to be a good first large-scale plane, the Performance
Series Reactor also excels at precision aerobatics -- and with a 50
cc gasoline engine can easily accomplish any 3D maneuver in the
book. Its two-piece, bolt-on wing allows easy transport to your
favorite flying site.
Assembling the factory-built components takes as little as
15-20 hours -- no time at all for a plane of this size.
