almost-ready-to fly electric-powered sports-aerobatic electric-powered glider!
This model includes rudder, elevator and throttle controls. With its smoothly
contoured spinner, folding propeller, rugged fuselage and built-up, Mylar covered removable 3-piece wing, it is
rugged enough for use as a trainer or to be enjoyed as an everyday flyer, and it is large enough to gracefully
deal with most of the effects of wind or turbulence.

the joy of flying this graceful ARF EP Glider.

how you use and fly it. Any testing or flying of this model airplane is done entirely at your own risk.
