Multiplex Mentor
The Mentor is the perfect all rounder with generous proportions comparable to a typical IC forty size trainer that remain the worlds most popular type of model aircraft.
The Mentor fits neatly into this class, but there is one major difference: with its modern brushless electric motor system there are no starting problems, and it is always quiet and clean! The ailerons are operated by two servos for better control precision.
The robust aluminium tail dragger undercarriage offers generous ground clearance, making it possible to take off without difficulty even from imperfect grass runways.
The steerable tail wheel ensures accurate manoeuvring ability on the ground
The Mentor is the ideal first step in powered flying with long flight times for effective trainer mode operation. Install a modern brushless motor and hi performance LiPo battery and the model is capable of towing gliders up to about 3 metres in span. The Mentor and Cularis make a fantastic tow team.
