All structures (with the exception of the rudder) are built-up and are either sheeted with 1/8" or 3/32" balsa. The rudder is fabric covered as per the prototype. No foam is used what-so-ever. A four to six channel radio is required. The Thunderbolt uses 5.50 or 6 inch diameter wheels and a 1/5 scale WW II pilot figure.
