Tupolev ANT-25 (Chkalov's ANT-25 RD) – Semi-Scale RC Powered Glider Plans (96" Wingspan, .09 Glow Engine)

Recreate one of aviation's great long-distance pioneers with this semi-scale RC model of the Tupolev ANT-25, famously piloted by Valery Chkalov on a record-breaking transpolar flight from Moscow to the U.S. in 1937. With a massive 96-inch wingspan, this elegant design has been adapted into a powered glider layout for .09-size glow engines, offering smooth, efficient flight with historic flair.

The ANT-25’s long, high-aspect wing and slender fuselage lend themselves perfectly to glider-like performance — excellent for thermal hunting or relaxed cruising under light power. The model maintains the aircraft’s distinctive scale silhouette while simplifying some construction features for practical radio control use.

This is a rewarding project for scale glider enthusiasts and builders who enjoy rare subject matter and unique configurations not often seen at the flying field.
