Huge, Almost-Ready-to-Fly 8 foot Senior Telemaster ARF available in 2 colors |  |
94" wingspan, 64" long, 1330 sq. in. wing area (Stab area 320 sq. in.), 10 lbs. 8 oz. flying weight (41 series AXI motor, 16 NiMH cells). This is EXACTLY the same flying weight that it is when equipped with a glow engine. It is READY BUILT and COVERED in yellow iron-on covering. Just install your power system and radio equipment and FLY IT!
Ready Built Senior Telemaster is accurately constructed of balsa and hardwoods, with a rib and spar wing. The quality is tops. Its bright yellow covering is easily seen at 500 yards! How does it fly? Its a Telemaster - and nothing flies like a Telemaster! It will land backwards in a 15 mph wind. Its takeoffs are majestic like an airliner. For aerobatics or carrying heavy loads weve included wing struts and secure mounting points that will help the huge wing carry heavier positive G loads.
Ready Built Senior Telemaster has a two-piece wing. You can haul it in a small car. Almost all hardware is included in the airplane's box: Wheels, steerable tail wheel, hinges, pushrods, control horns, and more. For 4 channels: Aileron (2 servos), Elevator, Rudder and Throttle. If you are building the Senior Telemaster for glow power you will need a.61 engine ( TTR9160).
Also available in a Red & White color scheme.

Top notch airplane. Through away standard tire's that came with plane and replaced with Dubro"s 4 inch big tire"s. Replaced struts with medal tubing and put lock rings on each end. Put a 91 magnum 4 stroke up front. The only thing that I don't like about this plane, is the cheap covering, but thats a easy fix. Those big tires make a "BIG" difference. I can take off on a soaked runway. Also, I never fly this plane lower than 500 feet except when I'm ready to land. This plane really likes wind. I had to power up a couple of time just to make the field, cause it just wanted to back up. This plane doesn't like the ground. It wants to fly forever and sometime I have to hand the radio off to let her fly. People say never fall in love with a plane, but its hard to to with a Telemaster. This IS the best airplane I have ever flown, PERIOD.

Well the first day, Dec 26th, went well for the first 11 flights of my Christmas Present. The ARF Senior Telemaster Yellow 8' Big Bird is dead. I was towing gliders and banners most of the day with Flaperon, Ch#1 & #6 set up on the Transmitter. All flights went very good, you know nothing flys like a Telemaster, until the 12th tow job.
I released a banner tow rig low to the runway in practice for a flag towing next month. All went well on the release and the Tele nosed down so I gave it a little up elevator and the Wing Strut broke at the attach point and the Hard Point wing mount ripped out of the wing allowing the air to get inside the wing. The wings started to disintegrate and raining down balsa wing rib pieces, then the wing came off the plane and as you know gravity rules. Both struts came loose from the cheep glue joint in the wings, All Glue joints are failing to bond to the Cheep Balsa used for the build up. During the Maiden flight I Rolled and Looped the plane checking it's Wing Loading with out problems. The loud POPPING sound when the wing strut mounts gave way indicates the failure point was over loaded.
Checking the glued balsa parts I found very little if nothing bonding the pieces. My recommendation is to remove the covering and reinforce the strut mounts before your first flight.

The instructions are horrible. pictures are so small that you can't make out what they are trying to show you. not for an inexperienced builder. glad that I had previous building experience. having said all that, it is a pleasure to fly. it flies like a dream. smooth and beautiful. I am thoroughly enjoying it. have had many compliments on this plane.

Setup this for 17cc gas. Might want to have done 20cc or better at my 6500' elevation. Overall very happy with the plane. Might want to work on elevator control rods / method as the supplied unit was a bit "flexible" also enhance instructions for suggested options on alternate ways to attach wing other than rubber bands. Lastly the wheels were not up the the rest of the plane's quality. Plane durability has thus far been great with some "off-runway" excursions that were a little rough and yet the plane stays ready to go. Looking at the new 12' Telemaster ARF but the price has me a bit hesitant thus far.

Plane is a very fast, fun build. I put an OS .61FX on it. It is a real hoot to fly. Very solid, high quality airplane, however, it does have some minor issues. The main wheels are lower in quality than I like. I have about 30 flights on mine and the center holes are egg shaping. I should have bushed them. The tail wheel is a poor performer, should be larger and higher quality. The covering around the engine insists on peeling back. Factory should have prepped the balsa in that area better. The furnished wheel collars weren't the correct size for the mains. All that said, I love my Telly
