  Rutan 74 Defiant 60'' Nitro Gas RC Airplane ARF, 60'', .40
Regular Price: $399.00
Sale Price: $198.88
Availability: In Back Order.

This is brand new, glow powered, radio controlled, Almost-Ready-to-Fly Rutan 74 Defiant 60'' Airplane. It is designed for intermediate or advanced modeler.

It is a twin-engine aircraft with the engines in a push-pull configuration. An aircraft constructed with a push-pull configuration has a mixture of forward-mounted (tractor) propellers and backward-mounted (pusher) propellers. The advantage that an push-pull configuration provides is the ability to mount two propellers on the aircraft's centerline. The design avoids the increased drag that comes with twin wing-mounted engines.

It is also easier to fly this plane even when one of the two engines fails. The thrust provided by the remaining engine is symmetrical. Most conventional twin-engine aircrafts will yaw in the direction of the failed engine, and becomes uncontrollable below a certain airspeed ( known as Vmc).
