SIG - Kougar Mark II- R/C SPORT AIRPLANE KIT *** BRAND NEW IN THE BOX ***

Description: Sig has not manufactured this kit in several years. They're beginning to ramp up manufacturing with what looks to be a focus on ARFS. It is not known if SIG MFG will ever begin manufacturing these old school balsa kits. As sad as that is, it is becoming increasingly evident that the Sig Kobra, Kougar, and King Kobra will not be manufactured anymore. IMO, Sig balsa kits are on the verge of extinction so if you ever wanted a Sig Kougar Mark II, now might be the time to buy one. Everyone sold is one less until they're all gone. Don't wait! Note: My Kougar has been highly modified into a taildragger with retracts. See video and photos. The kit version is tricycle fixed landing gear. This plane fly's beautifully and is very fun! This kit is in perfect order with all parts. Don't wait! They'll only get more and more expensive. Until they're gone altogether. IMO This is the best plane Sig ever made, and I've absolutely loved flying mine! Even harder to find today is the (.60 size) King Kobra. All three are absolutely classics and a gem to fly. The model in the video is mine. It’s converted to a tail dragger. Has eflight retracts and flaps. Powered by a super Tigre .45ABC with tuned pipe. Flys absolutely amazingly. I love it. Happy to provide specs if you want to do that mod. From Sig Website:If you are looking for an R/C model that is easy to build and exciting to fly, the KOUGAR is for you! This sleek jet-style airplane has a fully symmetrical wing section for smooth pattern-like aerobatics. The KOUGAR will do every stunt in the book, yet it is not difficult for low-time pilots to handle. Ample wing area and a thick airfoil provide outstanding slow speed stability.Kougar "early Thunderbird" color schemeBuilt-in wing "washout" eliminates tip stalling, enabling the KOUGAR to be slowed down to a walk for realistic nose-high landings. The KOUGAR is highly recommended as an introduction to low-wing flying and for beginning pattern competitors. Don't let the KOUGAR's racy lines worry you. Construction of this sport model is simple and straight forward. The load-carrying and equipment-carrying portion of the fuselage is basic balsa box structure.Once that is built, you add a molded plastic fuselage top, a molded clear plastic canopy, and a molded plastic cowling, to give the KOUGAR its modern jet-style shaped. The wings are white foam core with 1/16 in. thick balsa sheeting. Tail surfaces are sheet balsa.Wingspan50 in1270 mmWing Area540 sq in34.8 dm²Length47 in1194 mmFlying Weight5.5 - 6 lb2500 - 2720gWing Loading23 - 25 oz/sq ft70 -76 g/dm²Radio Required4-Channel (not included)Engine Required Set Up Specifications Accessories2-Stroke .40 - .60 (6.5 - 10 cc) (not included) Elevator 3/8inch9.5mmUp and Down Rudder 1 1/2inch 38mmRight and LeftAilerons 1/4inch6.4mmUp and DownCenter of Gravity 1/2inch13mmBack from tipDihedral 1 inch25.4mmPre Wing PanelIncidence +0 degree wing, 0 degree stabilizer Engine Offset0 degree down, 0 degree right EnglishMetricNumber RequiredPilot 1 1/2inch38mm1 Main Wheels2.5inch64mm2 Nose Wheel 2.5 64mm1 Fuel Tank 10ounce295cc1 Spinner 2 1/2inch70mm1 Covering 3 rolls depending on trim schemeOptional Kougar ACCESSORY KITOrder No. SIGAK235KIT FEATURESHARDWARE PACKAGEPre-Cut Foam Wing Cores1/16 " Balsa Wing SheetingBasic Balsa Box Fuselage StructureMolded ABS Plastic Fuselage TopMolded Jet-Style Clear CanopyInjection-Molded ABS Plastic CowlingSheet Balsa Tail SurfacesFormed Landing Gear WiresSteerable Nose GearPhoto-Illustrated Assembly ManualControl HornsNose Gear BearingSIG Easy HingesFiberglass Wing TapeBolts, Nuts and ScrewsTorque RodsR/C Links and RodsEngine MountsSince the KOUGAR is a sport model, not a scale model, no decals are included in the kit.
