The Phoenix Model SBACH 342 74" ARF V2 (PH246) is a high-performance aerobatic RC aircraft built for pilots who demand both extreme 3D capability and smooth, precise flight characteristics. Inspired by the modern full-scale Sbach 342, this 74-inch model delivers excellent agility, stability, and control authority across a wide flight envelope.

Constructed from premium balsa and plywood reinforced with composite materials, the SBACH 342 achieves a strong yet lightweight structure, making it ideal for aggressive manoeuvres such as hovering, harriers, torque rolls, and precision aerobatics.

This ARF V2 model features factory-painted carbon fibre landing gear, spinner, and fibreglass components, giving it a high-quality finish straight out of the box. The Smart Lock plug-in wing system allows fast assembly and easy transport, while the removable canopy ensures quick access for battery changes and radio setup.

Designed for versatility, the SBACH 342 supports both petrol and electric power systems, allowing you to choose between a 35–38cc petrol engine or a powerful electric setup depending on your flying style.

With its refined aerodynamics, lightweight build, and strong hardware package, the Phoenix Model SBACH 342 74" ARF V2 is an excellent choice for pilots looking to push their aerobatic flying to the next level.
