CJM Starfighter

The basic concept of Century Jet Models’ F-104 was to design and manufacture a high performance aircraft which took less than 50 hour to build for those of you who want to fly either a ducted fan, electric ducted fan, or turbine jet aircraft but have limited space.
The fuselage is constructed using epoxy fiberglass, comes pre-primed, with pre-molded engine hatch and cockpit. Panel lines are in the fuselage. Due to its length, the fuselage comes in 2 sections. Major plywood parts are laser cut which decreases your building time and insures accuracy. The main wing spar mount, fan mount, and main landing gear blocks are interconnected for added strength. Cut out the 4 doors along the panel lines and your ready for gear installation.
Computer designed, high lift airfoil foam wings come pre-sheeted. Our plug-in wing spar system ensures minimal building time. Flaps are recommended due to the high performance flight characteristics and realistic final approach speeds. The F-104 detachable tip tanks are included.
A basic kit comes with a 2 piece fiberglass fuselage, sheeted wings, plug in spar mechanism, horizontal stab, stab mechanism, tip tanks, canopy, plans, instructions plus numerous option packages. Customize the basic kit by selecting those options to finish your kit. Century Jet Models’ Centurion F-104 retracts with stainless steel struts with functional oleo struts are suggested due to the scale location of the retracts. Optional gear door kit available.
