Nothin'
Ventured, Nothin Gained!
The Venture 60 features a special blend of sleek styling,
simple structure, and smooth handling. The kit builds fast
thanks to the accurately machine-cut parts and the carefully
engineered design. Thanks to its long tail and light weight,
it breezes through aerobatics with grace and style. With
its massive wing area and thick airfoil, landing the Venture
60 is a walk in the park. A slow walk! It's a great choice
for your second airplane or your first low-wing or your
first taildragger. The Venture 60 is the kind of model that
makes every pilot look like an old pro.

the Venture 60, BTE, and Life".

Don't let your wheels fly naked! These stylish wheel pants
will improve the looks of your model and reduce drag. Designed
to accomodate 3" wheels, these pants are plenty tough
even if you fly from grass. The kit includes ABS plastic
wheel pant halves, fiberglass reinforcing tape, mounting
hardware, and instructions.
R/C Report May 1995
"The Venture 60 kit is, by far, one of the most impressive
kits I've ever assembled! Every aspect of the kit - the quality
of the materials, the cutting and preparation of the pieces,
the plans, and the instructions - just might each be the best
I've seen in any kit I've built."
R/C Modeler March 1998
"... you will start enjoying your V60 when you open the box;
excellent plans and instructions, and quality wood parts precisely
shaped. The V60 is the only kit I have assembled in recent
memory in which I did not have to replace a single piece of
wood for one reason or another."
Model Airplane News August 1996
"The photo-illustrated instruction book is very well-written;
follow it precisely because Bruce has thought it through and
explained it well." |
