from $789.99

1600R Sport – Versatile, Balanced, and Ready to Roam

The 1600R Sport is a well-rounded member of the Mini-Max family, offering a perfect balance of performance, weight, and buildability. With its mid-wing design and support for a range of lightweight two-stroke engines, the 1600R is ideal for pilots who want a little more speed and flexibility without moving into heavier, more complex territory.

Agile, responsive, and rewarding to fly—the 1600R keeps the building simple and the flying fun.

Modular Mini-Kits – Flexible, Affordable, Straightforward

This aircraft is available in modular Mini-Kits, allowing you to build one section at a time—on your schedule and your budget. Each kit includes raw materials, fasteners, and essential structural components. You can start small or go all in.
