 Seagull Models Van’s RV-8 35–40cc (SEA388)

The Seagull Models Van’s RV-8 is a beautifully engineered, large-scale ARF that captures the performance and sleek styling of the legendary full-scale Van’s RV-8. Designed for pilots seeking a versatile sport-scale aircraft, the RV-8 combines outstanding everyday flying characteristics with an impressive aerobatic flight envelope.

Built using precision laser-cut balsa and plywood with carbon fiber reinforcement, the RV-8 offers exceptional strength while maintaining a lightweight airframe. Factory-covered in genuine Oracover® film, it features a striking high-visibility scheme, a detailed cockpit with pilot figure, pre-installed LED navigation lights, functional flaps, and a removable two-piece wing for convenient transport and storage. 

Whether powered by a 35–40cc gasoline engine or a 12S electric power system, the RV-8 delivers smooth handling, excellent stability, and precise control response. From relaxed scale cruising to aggressive aerobatics—including loops, rolls, knife-edge passes, spins, and point rolls—the RV-8 inspires confidence at every speed. Its large top hatch provides easy access to the radio equipment, fuel tank, or batteries, making assembly and maintenance quick and convenient. 

Ideal for intermediate to advanced pilots, the Seagull Models RV-8 offers the perfect balance of scale realism, everyday practicality, and exhilarating performance, making it an excellent addition to any giant-scale hangar.
