TopRC Model T-28 Trojan (Unpainted, White Primer) – 111" Giant Scale Full Composite ARF

Experience the massive presence and impressive flight performance of the TopRC Model T-28 Trojan. At a 111-inch wingspan, this giant-scale warbird commands attention at the airfield. Built using advanced "Sandwich Technology" composite construction, this airframe is incredibly light for its size, offering a superior power-to-weight ratio and the rigidity required for high-performance scale maneuvers.

This version ships in an unpainted white primer finish — the perfect blank canvas for pilots who want to apply their own custom paint scheme, markings, or historically accurate livery.

✈️ Why Choose the Unpainted Version?
The white primer finish gives you full creative control over your T-28's final appearance. Whether you're replicating a specific USAF or Navy scheme, a foreign operator livery, or a one-of-a-kind custom design, this airframe gives you a factory-quality composite surface ready for paint. The same proven TopRC composite quality — your paint, your story.

Historical Context

The North American Aviation T-28 Trojan served as a vital radial-engine military trainer for the U.S. Air Force and Navy starting in the 1950s. Renowned for its ruggedness, it transitioned from a trainer to a successful counter-insurgency aircraft during the Vietnam War. Today, it remains one of the most popular warbirds in the civilian world for aerobatics and historical preservation. The unpainted version is especially popular with scale builders who want to replicate a specific historical scheme with precision.
