Description
A backyard legend since 1965, the Big Bertha stands 27 inches tall with its distinctive 1.64-inch diameter body and chunky proportions that produce a slow, theatrical liftoff to 500 feet. The larger airframe makes it easier to track in the sky and spot on landing, making it a crowd favorite at club launch days and a rewarding intermediate build.
Made in the USA
