Ecotop ARS 300 Mode D'emploi page 3

THANK YOU for your purchase of the RC aerobatic ECOTOP ARS 300!
We made a main effort while drawing and building this plane so that it is the best model you ever built and fly.
We provide you a kit with the highest quality and the best possible performances.
We wish you a great success while assembling and flying your new ECOTOP ARS 300.
The ARS 300 is a new French aerobatic plane which is positioned in the niche of the best aerobatic competition single seater: Extra 330,
Cap 332, XA41, Edge 540 ...

Bruno Ducreux, the boss of Aéro Restauration Service (ARS) has trusted Topmodel to reproduce, under exclusive licence, his new single-
seater aerobatics. We accepted his offer with enthusiasm because this airframe has it all to fly perfectly: high median wing, huge fuselage tail
moment arm, perfectly sized control surfaces, CAP 232 tail-type perfect for 3D flight. In addition, its both modern and retro look makes a big
change compare to everlasting EXTRA you can see every weekend on all airfields!
The ARS 300 120cc has been designed around the DLE 120 and the airframe was carefully sized (size and weight) to provide the best flying
qualities with this engine. It was not necessary to change the position of the wing or tails, as is often the case with the EXTRA. All control
surfaces are pocket hinged for better aerodynamic efficiency (no slot). The result is up to our expectations with a plane that follows the
path exactly as per your inputs, a plane which gives an impression of ease and lightness at the controls. Of course, the power / weight ratio
allows the wildest 3D aerobatics with the recommended propeller. As is often the case with this type of aircraft, it is not necessary to be a
champion to have a serious fun. Landings are particularly easy, the plane flies slowly on final thanks to its low wing loading and the oversized
undercarriage takes the wildest vertical loads.
