Description

Southerner 60" 30 Size VintageOriginally produced by Keil Kraft, the Free Flight Southerner was first drawn up in early 1947, but it wasn't until the Mills 2. 4 Diesel became popular that the design was revised and updated in 1949, with the result being a Mk II Souther 60" designed around the Mills 2. 4 Diesel. The wing can be built in a dihedral or polyhedral format. We have modified the original Free Flight design and included in our kitset an additional plan and laser cut parts

Originally produced by Keil Kraft, the Free Flight Southerner was first drawn up in early 1947, but it wasn't until the Mills 2.4 Diesel became popular that the design was revised and updated in 1949, with the result being a Mk II Souther 60" designed around the Mills 2.4 Diesel. 

The wing can be built in a dihedral or polyhedral format. We have modified the original Free Flight design and included in our kitset an additional plan and laser cut parts for a new tailplane with elevators, and fin and rudder for RC use.

Short Kit Or Complete Airframe Kit?

A Short Kit includes a full size printed plan and all of the laser cut parts that are required as part of the complete airframe build.

Items such as wing ribs, dihedral joiners, fuselage formers & fuselage parts, doublers, bulkheads and so on.

Every part which is a complex cut is precisely laser cut as per the plan and included in the short kit. Some kits may also include vacuum formed ABS parts like canopies or cowlings.

With a Short Kit, the only items you need to add to the laser cut parts to build a complete airframe are components which are simply cut to length. Parts such as wing spars, wing sheeting or fuselage sheeting for example.




A Complete Airframe Kit includes the Laser Cut Short Kit, plus the entire list of additional materials required to complete the airframe build.

Select this option when adding to your cart to purchase all of the materials required to complete the airframe build.

Every kit includes a full size printed plan, and where available the designers original construction notes. The kits do not include miscellaneous hardware such as pushrods, control horns, hinges, wheels etc.

Good pillows; wear a mask when fluffing and airing out
Color: Memory Pillow, Size: Standard
Searched everywhere for comfortable pillows, finally found this set. Perfect density and firmness, very comfortable. Downside is that they were covered in some type of white powder which dispersed as I was fluffing them up. Fiberglass, maybe? I recommend customers fluff and air them outside before use, and wear a mask. Pillows had an industrial smell, which dissipated after 20 minutes in the fresh air.

They are using different/cheaper shredded foam then they were 1 year ago
Color: Memory Pillow, Size: Standard, Color: Memory Pillow, Size: Standard
The shredded foam used last year was really nice and soft and even firm to a point where your head is supported perfectly while you sleep. now the 2 extra pillows I received this weekend have completely different shredded foam which seems to be cheaper. Also when you unzip the pillow cover and get to the part where you can unzip the other cover where the foam is no longer is there. so they are using cheaper shredded foam and a cheaper cover to where the foam is and you can no longer unzip the second cover to see the foam. but I can easily tell that they are using different and cheaper foam which isn't true memory foam. their new blend is too fluffy and the pillows are floppy and too soft. the old ones i bought 1 year ago are heavy pillows that are true memory foam which your head molds into perfectly and are amazing. these new ones they are making aren't worth it. In one picture you can see the cover with different colored cheap foam and the other picture with the green and white thick premium quality shredded memory foam. The other pictures show how the old ones are thick and firm and moldable for you head and the other 2 are floppy because they use cheaper shredded foam. They need to use the shredded foam they used last year! it was really good! Now they are not true memory foam pillows anymore due to changing from premium shredded foam to cheap shredded foam.
