The airframe is 3D printed. It's much tougher than balsa. These will take a beating! The covering is a vinyl-type adhesive covering that comes pre-cut. It's like putting on stickers - very simple!
 
Designed after of one of the world’s most popular RC airplanes: The Ugly Stik! This high-wing model is a great trainer for beginners who are just getting into the hobby, but also great for aerobatics. With stable flying at high or low speeds, this is a great choice for flyers of all skill levels.
 
A little history: The original concept of the radio-controlled Ugly Stik was to create an aircraft that could basically be "expendable". The goal was an airplane with minimal build time, and to use as a test platform for new control developments, as a loaner for visiting flyers, and for testing repaired equipment. The trim scheme of the Ugly Stick was inspired by the Fokker Eindecker - a German, single-seat fighter aircraft from WW1.
