The Phaeton 90 was designed around the powerful
4-stroke engines. Our deluxe kit builds very quickly and the flight performance is absolutely outstanding.
The lightly loaded, semi symmetrical airfoil is slow and docile when you want it to be, but open up the throttle and watch out! The Phaeton 90 will immediately respond with any and all kinds of aerobatics anytime you want it to. This is one great model at an even greater price! Where else can you find a model this size, for this price - only from Balsa USA! The Phaeton 90 makes a great first large biplane. It is very easy to build and even easier to fly. We think that you are going to love it!\
