The Sea Fury Collection

The Hawker Sea Fury was one of the fastest and most powerful piston engine powered aircraft ever designed, as such it has inspired many modellers in all divisions of radio controlled flight, PSS is no exception.  Here are a few examples of members models...

Steve Kemp has successfully converted his PSS Sea Fury from the Balsa Craft power kit.

All built up construction, the model spans 48" and weighs in at 2.5lbs.  Controlled by 3 Ch radio for ailerons, elevator and rudder.

It is sprayed with acrylic paint and decals are cut from self adhesive trim and film.

EPP Hawker Sea Fury designed and built by Phil Cooke.

A1/8th scale model, it spans 60" and uses 2 Ch R/C to control ailerons and elevator.

Formed entirely from Black EPP and covered in brown paper and PVA.  AUW is over 7lbs, giving a wing loading of 26oz/sq ft.

Performance is superb on the right day, but it needs sufficient lift to get going!
