SAB AVIO KR84 Tortuga Kit Only
Drawn from the "Tale of Antarctica" via SAB, The Tortuga is a fictionalized replica of the recon / interdiction attack drone that courageously fought in the massive air battle known as the "Year 513 Battle of Kemp" - a ferocious air to air drone battle in an all our effort of absolute control of the new Antarctic world. With the Tortuga, you now have the ability to pull this aircraft out of the pages of Antarctica, experiencing the raw speed and howling sound of the Tortuga as it blisters the skies above.
Designed to harness a 2200kV brushless motor with a 5x5E pusher prop, the KR84 Tortuga is a radical departure from a conventional fixed wing aircraft, utilizing a lifting body design paired with wing root extensions and a canard layout for pitch control. This simplified (4) channel layout consists of ailerons via the wings and pitch via the forward canards, offering excellent control at low and high speed flight. Couple this with favorable stall behavior, as the canards are the 1st surface to stall, leading to a predictable nose down stall departure.
Constructed of ultra high strength vacuum molded fiberglass sandwich components, the Tortuga was designed for epic levels of speed and G force, allowing the ultra aerodynamic layout to pay massive dividends in all out velocity. Further this with an ultra simplified design that is easy to assemble and fly, the Tortuga is an epic high velocity aircraft that will thrill like no other with the speed and sound the Tortuga was destined for.
Unlock the potential and capability of the KR84 Tortuga and live out the "Battle of Kemp" above. With the SAB Avio Tortuga KR84, this amazing aircraft is destined to stun with its high visibility paint scheme, and is ready and waiting to take to the vertical in epic speed, high G flight.

Customer Reviews
Excellent build kit. Very helpful easy to understand instructions.
So I received this for Christmas. What am absolutely amazingly built airplane. Fit and finish are a 11 out of 10. I have no doubt it will fly just as amazing. Helidirect was great to purchase from. Shipping was quick and packaging was awesome too.
Bought this a few years back, was first SAB product ever purchased. Quality is superb, everything fits perfectly. Once set up properly it flies really well.
The hardware for the electronics and motor mount are sorted very orderly in labeled zip bags. The manual is pretty good, but I which SAB could have made a chart with a wide variety of motors and propellers to be used on the Tortuga. The airplane is a tank, this is no foamie so be responsible.
The Sab Tortuga showed up very well packaged. The plane is very well made and has very good instructions.
