Seagull Models Taylorcraft EP 25e

Seagull Taylorcraft EP 25e Kit SEA 193

The full size Taylorcraft is a conventional layout, high wing, fabric-covered, two-seat aircraft known for its speed and efficiency on limited horsepower engines. The BC-12D model was designed to compete directly with the well-known Piper J-3 Cub and other small civilian aircraft. The Taylorcraft never gained the popularity of the J-3 Cub, although it was 20 mph faster. Seagull's version of the Taylorcraft is a beautiful replica of the high-wing classic. Its lightweight construction and high wing placement make this almost-ready-to-fly Taylorcraft a docile, easy-to-fly aircraft that is gentle enough for most pilots. Scale enthusiasts will marvel at the Taylorcraft’s incredibly accurate appearance. The true-to-scale outline is accentuated by a cream and corsair blue scale UltraCote® trim scheme that classically replicates the civilian airplane’s golden days.

 

The Taylorcraft 25E was designed from the ground up with the beginner flyer in mind. It is a High-wing airplane which is easy to fly and quick to assemble. The airframe is conventionally built using balsa, plywood and veneer to make it stronger than the average ARTF, yet the design allows the aircraft to be kept light.

 

You will find that most of the work has been done for you already. The pushrods are pre-made to the correct lengths, the motor mount has been fitted and the hinges are pre-installed and pinned for security. Flying the Taylorcraft 25E is simply enjoyable.
