Wedell-Williams

One of the more successful 30’s racers, the Wedell-Williams won the 1933 Thompson Trophy Race piloted by designer Jimmy Wedell and also set a world landplane record of 305 m.p.h.. The planes were successfully campaigned throughout the 30’s by pilots like Roscoe Turner who won the 1934 Thompson. The Rough and Ready Aviation version of the Wedell-Williams makes a great little pylon racer as well as a fun flying sport model. It is best suited to outdoor or larger indoor sites.

Note:

Receivers:
Because of the various radio systems in use today, we do not attempt to stock and sell receivers. Obviously using the smallest, lightest receiver practical is advantageous. All our prototype testing is done with Spektrum Ar 6100E receivers which weigh about 4 grams.

Batteries:
For flying the racers we recommend using a 2 cell 7.4 volt 300 -350 mAh LiPo typically weighing around
20 -22 grams.

Due to the uncertainty in the supply of LiPo batteries lately, we suggest that you source your batteries from your local hobby shop or at one of the following links.
