Built for the 20 Gallon Challenge!

The Cascade Juniper's wide wingspan allows it to maintain flight for long distances on just twenty gallons of fuel. Pitch is a little tough on takeoff (at 125mph/200kph), but once the aircraft gets to a cruise speed of around 270mph (434kph) only slight trim is needed to keep the aircraft stable.

Enjoy!
