North Pacific Bipe 21 inch Wingspan Rubber Powered Biplane Model, D-129-3 plastic model kit

D-129-3 North Pacific Bipe 21 inch Wingspan Rubber Powered Biplane Model

Wood Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good+

Rare; part of the scarce 'Deluxe Flying Model' series from North Pacific. North Pacific was famous for making the rubber powered Sleek Streak and Star Flyer which not only flew circles around the rubber/stick competition, but could be modified to achieve near-competition performance. The glider line included the fantastic Stunt Flier, which for an 'out of the envelope' design, flew very, very well. But North Pacific went all out with this new 'guaranteed to fly' cabin design - a big departure from the profile sticks. The kit features sheet balsa covering, reinforced with hi-impact plastic inside. Can be flown with a .010 gas motor also. Includes very detailed, illustrated instructions and also comprehensive 'how to fly' instructions. The model has not been started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts and instructions. The entire series consisted of the Bipe, Sport'r, Dust'r and Race'r. The Sport'r, Race'r and Dust'r were quoted as flying 1/8 of a mile and Bipe 1/10 of a mile. Detailed instructions are included for gas engine installation. The high price and very short issue has made all of these kits very rare.
