A black project developed for LOC Productions, the #780 draws inspiration from a famous secret government project. #780 was the designation of the first flyable prototype of the F-117A Stealth Fighter. While our #780 wasn't developed to defend freedom, it was made for research at an infamous ranch in Utah.
This unique six fin design features a 3" airframe and a versatile 29mm motor mount. Nylon shock cord with loops sewn, 36" parachute, starter fire blanket, and all necessary hardware. Get up in the air with this unique, former top secret project!
