Navigator 70 - 1600-Class F3A Pattern Airplane ARF
 
BJ Craft Navigator 70 – 1600-Class F3A Pattern Airplane ARF
The BJ Craft Navigator 70 brings the design philosophy and refined flight characteristics of a modern full-size F3A model into a more practical 1600-class platform. With a 61-inch wingspan, it offers excellent visibility and presence in the air while remaining easier to transport, assemble, and operate than a traditional 2-meter competition aircraft.
 
Its lightweight molded composite fuselage is combined with built-up balsa wings and tail surfaces, creating an airframe that is both rigid and light. The moderately swept wing and large canalizer are designed to provide clean tracking, predictable pitch response, and smooth transitions throughout precision aerobatic maneuvers.
 
The Navigator 70 is equally suited for F3A practice, advanced sport aerobatics, rolling maneuvers, snaps, point rolls, and club-level pattern competition. Its stable and precise handling also makes it an excellent choice for pilots transitioning from conventional sport models into their first dedicated pattern aircraft.
 
Designed exclusively for electric power, the Navigator 70 can accommodate propellers up to approximately 18 inches, providing strong vertical performance together with the smooth and progressive throttle response required for precision flying.
 
The result is a premium, manageable-size pattern airplane that delivers many of the qualities pilots appreciate in larger BJ Craft models—without the transportation requirements or operating cost of a full-size F3A aircraft.
