Sharkface RC plane kit from the Vintage Model Company

A while ago we found the Vintage Model Company, a balsa aircraft manufacturer in the UK, on YouTube. A shout-out to James for joining the company and promoting their work!

We were looking for a small, simple to build kit that can use spare electronics we had. During our search we stumbled upon the Sharkface (also named Sharkfish), a 22" (560 mm) wing span motor plane originally designed in 1965 for Single Channel Radio Control. The design has been updated for use of modern electronics and application of latest kit production methods such as laser cutting.
