F.R.O.G. SENIOR SERIES TOMTIT

The FROG TOMTIT was part of a range of six models that made up the FROG Senior Series produced between 1953 and 1969.

Like all kits in the FROG Senior Series, the parts were die-cut and simple to put together resulting in a near scale representation of full-size sports planes of the era. This kit has been updated and is now a superb modern building experience.

THIS KIT

Designer Chris Long has completely revamped the original kit using CAD to produce accurate plotted plans and laser-cut parts that fit beautifully.

This new kit includes alternative "built up" tail parts should you wish to lighten the rear, as well as solid balsa tail parts for greater originality.

What else could you do?

RC?

It goes without saying that most rubber power models can be converted to Electric for FREE FLIGHT or RADIO CONTROL. The Brushed Tony Ray Geared Motors are Ideal on a budget. Servoshop has a range of Micro Boards and servos that would adapt to RC models like this. If you have never had experience of fitting RC / adapting models it is an easy learning curve. Joining other indoor or micro flyers in a Club or regular flying can help.

Where can I get the gear? This is a suggestion. See Below.

 Search Servoshop super-micro. We cannot put links sorry. eBay would not allow. Servoshop super-micro motors have the Super-Micro Universal Motor/Gearbox/Prop Set for Tony Ray Kits and the Super-Micro RC 1104 Micro Brushless Motor Which comes with a printed mount now a days. We can only sell items we have listed on eBay and we only have the kits available – SWM servoshop have everything.

But if fitted RC its something you would have to adapt yourself.

We are not physically at the SWM store , but can arrange for collection in person at the store.
