[RCSE] Martin SR7 slope soarer

[Al Scidmore]

I have a Martin SR-7 slope soarer that I would like to find a home for. The ideal owner would be a slope bug with an old Kraft AM transmitter. The SR-7 is a 55" span aerobatic slope soarer kitted by Bob Martin Models, circa 80s. A swept back wing contributes to the jet-like look with an "unbreakable" molded fuselage of white "Dura-lene" plastic. Wings are plywood sheeted foam cores. Wing area about 588 sqin., and weight about 3#, 10 oz. I could part with it for $125 plus shipping.     The condition is structurally sound. It needs a little paint work, mostly landing scratches on the bottom, but looks pretty good as-is. It has two servos: currently a Kraft KPS14 for elevator and a Kraft KPS15 for ailerons. Right now it has a Kraft KPR5C AM receiver on channel 12 with a high-side crystal. The servos are good ones, but Kraft no longer is in business and the connectors only fit Kraft. Kraft servos work well with Airtronics and JR receivers by replacing the servo connectors.     This is not a light lift airplane. It flies very well in a medium to heavy wind, and really is spectacular in a gale. I have some jpg pictures. If interested, send me an e-mail.
