gpma1027

A beautiful blend of appearance, performance and ease!


The next big thing in F3A-style fun!

The Venus 40 ARF made it easy for fans of .40-size airplanes to enjoy the fun of pattern aerobatics. Now, the Venus II ARF offers pilots the chance to enjoy the same crisp performance and ARF convenience in a .60-1.20-size performer!

  • Ready for its first performance in just 10-12 hours
  • Smooth, precise and absolutely predictable — an ideal ARF for serious F3A practice or just putting on a show at the field.
  • Jig-built for straightness and constructed of hand-selected woods, for maximum strength with minimum weight.
  • Includes painted fiberglass parts and a factory-applied MonoKote® trim scheme for looks and ease.
  • Complete Great Planes hardware package includes an aluminum spinner, steerable tailwheel and formed aluminum gear.
  • A symmetrical airfoil and long tail moment support a broad range of aerobatic manuevers — and superb tracking through every one!

gpma1027 parts
A quick look shows how much work is already done and how fast assembly can be! The airframe is already built and covered in MonoKote film, fiberglass parts are painted and the hardware is included and complete!
Painted to match the MonoKote covering, the cowl and wheel pants are ready for installation. Attaching the wheel pants takes only two screws and a couple of minutes.
