Windrider Boeing 737-700 Slope Soarer

Finally made my mind up and ordered something different to fly on the South Downs - A Windrider Boeing 737-700 (glider version). Its currently somewhere between Sussex and China but Its on its way, probably sitting in customs!

With a 1.9m wingspan and made of styro foam it should make a lovely scale slope soarer.


It comes with a huge choice of decal sets of most the worlds major airlines. I have chosen British airways as its my favourite airline (keeps Bill M happy too) but it was a close call with Easyjet. The bright Orange fin of Easyjet would make it very visible in the sky. There you go Rob - There's a good excuse for you to buy one.



Windrider offer a good selection of airliners for sale - 777, 787 and the mighty Airbus A380

These seem very popular with the electric guys who put EDF in and add lights and retracts.

If your Interested I will try and add a build thread?

  1. Unfortunately, the model was sent successfully by Windrider and arrived in the UK. From then it all went wrong. The post office held the model for at Gatwick for 5 weeks without any letter, email or phone call to say it was being held awaiting a customs charge. Ming at Windrider was superb and chased delivery from his side only to find out eventually that the Parcel Force had sent the model back to China.
    Rubbish service from Parcel Force.
    Don't be put off buying from Ming. 100% genuine guy who refunded my money in full without any hassle.
