SOLD Mini Toucan Sloper Kit

Hey Everybody,

Here is another kit I am looking to sell to get some funds to put towards a new wing set for my Jester. This is a Mini Toucan kit that I got from the raffle at Sunset Camp N Fly last year. I was looking forward to building this one at some point but I really want to get my Jester back in the air. Plus, time for building planes is limited at the moment unfortunately.

I reached out to Anton Benning about the build and this is what he had to say; "Nothing much to know . Traditional joining of the wings together with 5 min epoxy. Top part of wings on flat service , so no dihedral . Wrap 2 layers of 5 oz cloth around center. 1/4” Dowl at front of leading edge . Simple wing bolt at back to hold wing on . Nothing special for stabs and fin . Conduits are marked on wing for servo cutouts."

Its a great looking kit with foam core wings, solid wood tails and a nice fiberglass fuse. I had wanted to cover the wings/tails with light fiberglass cloth so the wood would show though. I dont have dimensions handy but I can take some measurements when I get home if anyone is interested. I will try to add more photos later as well. It does come with some fiberglass cloth for joining the wings and a carbon spar, just not pictured.

As always, feel free to reach out with any questions. Local pickup in Hayward/San Ramon or I can ship. Buyer pays shipping (pirateship).

Not really sure what its worth so starting at $100 OBO

I understand Anton made a lot of these in the past and they were/are very popular in South Africa.

It looks like it would be a lot of fun. I dont mind holding onto it if no one wants it but the funds would help with my unexpected expenses... lol
 
I will have to check and get back to you. I am working late tonight so it may not be until tomorrow evening or this weekend but Ill let you know when I have a chance to check.
