Aeronca Defender

Description: A classic scale flyer for GWS equipment!

Designed by Dave Robelen, the Aeronca Defender is a gentle, semi-scale model that could be used as a trainer but can also do modest aerobatics. It thermals well and is well suited to flying touch-and-go’s. The minimum flying area required for an experienced pilot is a baseball infield.
