BMP RC Powered Paraglider Pilot (PPG Pilot) 1:8 Scale

BMP RC PPG Pilot is a 1:8 scale figure designed for RC thermal soaring and controlled gliding (BMP RC PG Pilot kit), and powered RC flight—(BMP RC Powered PG Pilot Kit) suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, ideal for unmotorized or motorized RC use in calm air. 

Pilot Kits to chose from:

- BMP RC Pilot Kit. Includes Torso and head, arms, legs, resin rivets/nut/bot, helmet, helmet liner.

- BMP RC Pilot and Frame Kit. Includes BMP RC Pilot Kit + frame + propeller 

- BMP RC Pilot Power Kit Unassembled. Includes BMP RC Pilot + frame Kit + motor + 2 servos 

- BMP RC Pilot Power Kit Assembled. Includes BMP RC Pilot and Frame Kit + Motor + 2 servos 

Constructed from durable hard resin, components are toughened to handle unexpected hard landings. Kits not including Motor/Servos will come unassembled. For resin material helmet liner and helmet need to be heated (using standard hair dryer) to ply gently for fitting. Each part may be painted using alcohol based or acrylic paint (clear epoxy coated optionally) as needed. The pilot's integrated servo arm/servo horn is compatible with HS-225MG servos with 25-tooth and other similarly sized models. Servos can be mounted using screws or optionally secured with CA glue for a more permanent installation.

This model supports a wide range of small RC paraglider wings, typically from 0.4 m² (1250 mm span) to 0.6 m² (1450 mm span). It pairs especially well with the BMP 1.4m Sport Wing, a single-surface paraglider wing (sold separately) optimized for powered RC paraglider flight. A 2S LiPo battery can be mounted directly to the pilot or onto the motor frame depending on the kit selected. .
