The
Sterling Ringmaster is truly a classic control line model that allowed many people to learn to fly the AMA stunt pattern.
A while back, I bought a Sterling Ringmaster kit off of eBay with plans to build and fly it. Since that time,
I have sold the kit. Wingspan: 42" Length: 27¾" Engine: .19 to .35 If you go to the
Brodak website, you will see that the new profile stunt kits are
priced at around $60 - $70. This classic typically sells on eBay for between $75 and $125, with no good reason why
the price varies so widely. A couple companies have begun selling laser-cut kits- or at least short kits -
of the Ringmaster. I'm not sure which version they are making. Here are a couple sources for a Ringmaster kit.
This list of the different Ringmaster models was obtained from "The
Ringmaster Page."
