The 35 in. span RV-4 (350) is a is a complete redesign of our classic brushed speed 300 kit offering. StevensAero refreshed the design to increase the models appeal to both kit and traditional plans builders alike. StevensAero believes the updated RV-4 is a great improvement over the original, with a reduced parts count and easier to handle materials, the structure remains light, sturdy, and ridiculously simple to frame – this makes the balsabuilder version of our classic easier to handle, sturdier, and more refined.
StevensAero is excited to offer the RV-4 in full kit form. This comprehensive kit offering includes a full complement of laser-cut ribs, formers, and shape parts along with: balsa wood strip stock, plans, construction article, pre-formed landing gear, canopy, cowl, wheel pant kit, and thorough hardware package.
