After the not very successful Limit X, I have moved to a SLEC Coyote.

Slope Soaring Sussex is a friendly group of RC glider flying enthusiasts based in Sussex, UK. We slope soar at various locations on the South Downs and have a field for thermal soaring. ‘Slope Soaring Sussex’ is a BMFA affiliated RC Glider-only flying club. We fly many types of RC gliders from conventional slope soarers to Scale, DLG, F3B, F3J, F5J, PSS and more. Our aim is to encourage and promote safe, responsible and enjoyable radio controlled model flying. New and experienced flyers welcome.
Thanks for sharing this with us Rob. I've got a couple of Coyotes, one ready-made converted from electric and one original Ridge Runt kit. Both are simple, practical and great fun.
ReplyDeleteHi Russell, I hope it'll fly well, it looks like it should....
ReplyDeleteOh yes, very reliable flyer, often better with ballast, so leave a space at the c of g.
ReplyDeleteI retrofitted 1/16th sheet balsa to front half of wings to form a D box and improve puncture resistance back in the days of tissue and dope covering.
