The Dare Design "Quick Build" Focke-Wulf 190-A was designed for the modeler who likes to build high performance warbirds, but has limited building time. The model has been pre-fabricated to a point which will insure a good straight airplane with a minimum effort by the modeler.

The Model can be built with fixed landing gear for the modeler who's looking for something simple, or the parts provided in the kit can be used to install retracts, such as the B & D's we used on the prototype. For the modeler who's looking for even more, flaps can easily be added.

Power your model with a .45 2-stroke or a .65 4-stroke for a good, solid sport scale model, or step up to a .60 2-stroke or .80 4-stroke and you'll have a fast, fully aerobatic model of one of Germany's best fighters of WWII.  Regardless of the engine used, standard radio equipment is more than adequate.
   

A "Quick-Build" Kit

  • All Laser-Cut parts

  • 5 Vacuum-Formed parts

  • Pre-built, balsa sheeted wings, fin, decking, etc.

  • Pre-built fuselage, ready for finishing

  • Quality "Dare" balsa and hardwoods

All Dare kits have been  prototyped and extensively test flown
     --your assurance of quality!

This Dare model is capable of high performance and full aerobatics and, like its counterpart, was designed for experienced pilots.

Control Line 

 P-51 Mustang - Beginner's Control Line #301CL

Introductory Special  

Wingspan: 20" Power: .049 Glow or Speed 400 Electric
 
This Dare Design kit has been available for quite some time, but until now has not been shown on our website. With the renewed interest in control line flying worldwide, we felt that we must add this great kit that was designed for the beginner. It's also a refreshing change for the experienced control line pilot and will provide a good model to teach others how to fly control line. 

This is a great little combination 1/2-A control line model that is very easy to build and fly. The kit includes a full size plan and building instructions, laser cut profile fuselage, machine cut wing and control surfaces, Brodak 1/2-A motor mount, control horn, bellcrank, leadout wire, pre-bent landing gear, wheels, hardware, etc.

For electric power we've included laser cut fuselage extensions and other necessary conversion parts, including the electric power conversion wiring diagram. For flying with electric power the model requires a 6 volt speed 400 electric motor, a 10 amp fuse, a on/off switch and a 600AE 5-cell battery. 

 
This model was designed for a "tank-mount" .049 engine such as a Cox, or the old O.K. Cub units. We will soon be including the parts necessary to use the new Brodak .049 beam-mount engine that's shown on the website.

 Smoothie  #304CL

The Dare "Profile Smoothie" is an updated and simplified version of Bob Palmer's immortal Veco "Smoothie", first kitted in the late 1960's. Engineered for lightness, with easy construction, a complete hardware package and quality laser cut balsa, the Dare "Profile Smoothie" retains the classic fuselage lines and the beautiful semi-elliptical wing of the original model. Designed by Larry Kruse for the control line sport flyer, or for modelers wanting to move up to a full-flapped airplane, the "Profile Smoothie" is a great intermediate ship capable of flying the full AMA stunt pattern.
  
Kit features:  Full size plans, built-up wing, step-by-step instructions, Laser Cut balsa fuselage, ribs, stab, rudder, etc. Kit also includes leadout wires, control horn, bellcrank, hardware package and a pre-ent landing gear.

 Sporthawk #305CL

Clarence Lee's Veco "Tomahawk" was one of the most popular control line ships of the 50's and 60's. Enlarged and lightened for even better flying qualities, the Dare "Profile Sporthawk" is based on the old Veco design and newly redesigned by Larry Kruse for today's sport flyers and those just entering the world of control line flying. Perfect laser cut parts, a complete hardware package and excellent quality Dare balsa wood make construction quick and easy with minimal time between the kit and the flying field.
 
Kit Features: Full size plans, built-up wing, step-by-step instructions, laser cut balsa fuselage, ribs, stab, rudder, etc. This kit also features leadout wires, control horn, bellcrank, hardware package and a pre-bent landing gear.
