What is a Hilly B

The Hilly B aircraft was designed by Steve Holland with the idea of putting fun back into building and flying.

The laser cut kit provides the basis to create the airframe and then to customise it to a unique HillyB of your own. We have some great versions coming very soon so keep checking back. Please send in the pictures of your custom HillyB To Purchase Please Click Here

The build is a simple process and ideal for those that have never built before with laser cut parts and some balsa sheeting to do, the Hilly B is in the air in no time.
