With the Super Skybolt ARF, the only things standing between the pilot and a first performance at
the field are a few hours of fast, easy assembly. There's no need to build: The airframe is built light,
strong and straight. The covering is genuine Top Flite® MonoKote. The hardware is generous and
Great Planes' best. And the performance is everything an aerobat could want: crisp and precise in
execution, silky smooth in transition and adept at making a pilot's best look better than ever. The
Super Skybolt offers the elegance of yesteryear's air show greats with the ease that comes with
Great Planes' best ARF engineering.

They look like they took hours to compete, but the
lightweight fiberglass cowl and wheel pants come
out of the box painted, and ready for installationand,
with a gleaming aluminum spinner and steerable
tailwheel assembly as bonuses.
The striking red and white checkerboard
pattern on the bottom wing makes it easy to
tell which way is up — even at a distance!

bottom wing half provides the power for
both wings…and spectacular aerobatics.
