32" Me-163B Komet Profile Kit (Regular version)

Our "regular" version of the 32" ME163 Komet is easier to build than the "combat" version that we sell.  It has only 7 foam parts - including an undercambered wing. Its lighter and can use a less powerful motor and smaller battery compared to the Combat version.  Its more relaxing to fly - it flies really well but its not a speedster.  For easy flying you can use a 2-cell battery, or for more spirited performance use a 3-cell pack. (We recommend a 3-cell battery for outdoor flying)

The kit includes the foam parts needed to build this model, along with a fully detailed construction manual and some accessories such as the pull-pull control system. The model is not assembled or painted, so the customer needs to supply glue, paint, and other hobby tools, 2 servos, a motor, and the RC electronics in order to complete it. This model is designed for a small 1700kV 17gm brushless motor and 2-bladed 7" propeller (not included but available separately on this website).

The fuselage and wings of this 32" model feature detailed "panel lines" on one side.

Here's a video of this model flying indoors at the 2008 KIEF event.

Note: this model is also available in a smaller "mini" version, which is also very simple to build but its much faster. Click here to see the smaller kit.
