The Czech built Albatros series of jets, from L-39 to the latest L-59 are the most widely used basic/advanced jet trainer in the world, they are also hugely popular with display teams and "private" pilots looking for the thrills of a Military jet at a relatively low price, as a result this good looking and highly versatile aircraft is often a feature at air shows all over the world and they are even raced at the Reno Air Races!
This beautiful L-59 just oozes quality, the deep gloss finish and attention to scale detail is amazing, this level of finish is normally reserved for large scale turbine models and EDF models with a much, much higher price tag. The one piece removable wing is retract ready and features flaps, the nicely made glass fiber ducting is all included as is the hardware and scale drop tanks. For the final touch, we have a set of purpose built electric retracts available, which feature sprung scale trailing link legs and alloy wheels, they are designed to fit straight in with no mods (NOT included, see related items below).
As well as truly amazing looks, this H-King L-59 is designed for performance. There is tons of canopy space for Lipolys, a high power 6s set up would be the minimum for jet like performance, 8s would take you into ballistic territory! The L-59 is such a stunning jet to fly, both fast and aerobatic, so we would reccomend High Torque Metal Gear mini servos all round. This high quality L-59 Super Albatros is one of the best looking and performing 90mm EDF jets available anywhere, a genuine scale, high performance EDF at an affordable price, for scale jet fans, this L-59 is a must!
