Product Details

KK PEACEMAKER

The Peacemaker is a true, all time great control line stunter, designed to take popular 2.5 - 3cc diesel and glow-plug motors, designed by the great George Aldridge.

A profile model, with straightforward built-up construction, with all parts precision laser-cut, for an accurate build. Sparkling stunt performance, as would be expected, but also very stable, providing a model suitable for stunt beginners and expert alike.

A real aero-modelling classic.

Shipping

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.

Well presented classic

Not much that can be said about the Peacemaker that hasn't already been said - it is truly a classic that everyone should have at some time. The kit provides excellent wood selection and is nicely laser cut without too much burning - loads better than some kits from the US that I have built. The grain direction on the wing trailing edge extensions runs span-wise, when it ought to run parallel with the trailing edge, but this is hardly a major issue. I chose to glass/epoxy the fuselage and tail feathers for strength and added an inboard cheek section (as per combat model engine pod construction) to stiffen the fuselage/engine/wing joint area. I also covered the wing in nylon. Ready to fly she weighs in at just under 20 oz with a PAW 2.5 TBR - not too bad and it certainly underlines the good wood choice. Incidentally, running on a 9x4 APC prop the model copes with 6oft lines in any conditions up to a strong breeze (20kts), in fact it is a bit too fast on 52ft lines! With the CofG in the right spot and a competent pilot it can be persuaded to do most manoeuvres in 'the book' but is mostly just a really fun 'plane to fly!

Thanks for taking the time to review the Peacemaker.

We have been constantly updating our laser cut files and components to improve the Peacemaker kit and it's great to hear that you enjoyed the kit and build.

We'd be really grateful if you could email us a couple of pictures of the finished model for use on the website.
