New from Kyosho:

Kyosho announces a new, larger 60-size ARF version of the popular Calmato series airplane. The Calmato 60 Sports is an attractive low-wing sport plane that features the same high-quality construction and durability as the rest of the Kyosho line. It's 90-percent pre-assembled, so you need only install radio gear and engine of your choice, plus some minor final assembly. Linkage tubes are already pre-installed - just insert the included linkage rods and connect them to the servos and control surfaces. Additionally, no gluing is required - the tail assembly bolts to the fuselage and the main wing halves are joined with an aluminum spar and sealed with tape. A two-piece universal engine mount makes for simple mounting of most popular .60-size two-stroke engines, and Kyosho America throws in a spinner at no charge.
The large size of the Calmato 60 Sport makes it more stable, so it can be flown in more challenging conditions than smaller planes, but don't mistake this plane as having the same limits as most trainers. The low-wing configuration and large ailerons give the Calmato 60 the ability to perform many aerobatic maneuvers, which makes it an ideal plane for novice to intermediate pilots.
It's available in blue or red color schemes.
