20" KK CHAMP

The KK Champ is a very simple, quick to build, surprisingly robust control line trainer for 0.75 - 1cc (.049 - .06 cu.in) diesel or glow-plug motors such as the ED Bee. Precision laser-cut, with all parts pre-formed, that will get you flying in only a few hours.

A real classic, which has stood the test of time and will get you through the early stages of learning to fly control line.

AT A GLANCE

  • Wingspan 20" (50.8 cm)
  • Power system: control line; motor up to 1.5cc

YOUR KIT

Spitfire or Mills 0.75 diesel motors, which all featured integral fuel tanks. The motor mount is suitable for other engines, but you may have to attach a 1.5cc fuel tank.

UK SHIPPING

Most orders are shipped via Royal Mail’s Tracked 48 service.

For larger or heavier orders, we use UKMail/DHL to deliver your package on a Next Working Day service.

Shipping is free to UK Mainland addresses for orders over £30.00, otherwise we charge £6.00 for Royal Mail Tracked 48 parcels and £12.00 for UKMail/DHL Nest Working Day.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING

Smaller items

Items that fit within Royal Mail International Tracked Medium Parcel parameters (59cm x 17cm x 15cm weighing less than 2kg) can be sent to most countries outside the UK.

For example up to 3 of our smaller 18” wingspan kits can fit into one of these parcels.

A parcel like this currently costs around £14 to Europe and around £18 to send to the USA and will take up to 3 weeks to arrive. This is because Royal Mail hands over the parcel to the local Post Office service for your country who have to clear it through customs and then deliver it to you.

The Royal Mail tracking code also transfers over to the tracking for your country’s postal service.

Larger items

For items that do not fit within Royal Mail International Tracked Medium Parcel parameters, we use standard international couriers such as DHL, FedEx and UPS.

These companies use something called volumetric weights to calculate the cost of shipping.

For example, a Balsa Basics RC bundle kit that measures 102cm x 34cm x 16cm and weighs 2.5 kg is actually calculated at 14kg!

This makes these very expensive to send outside the UK - a large kit can cost nearly £40 to send to France.

PRODUCT REVIEWS

B Thorpe

I built a kk champ my first control line model when I was13 in 1965 I also got a Davis Charlton .75 quick start engine learnt to fly it second go what's special is I've still got it and it still works I've got lots of other models and engines from that time in the loft but it's time to let them go the champ was the most fun so not bad value for 4quid
