Sailplanes trade a motor for the challenge of staying aloft on lift, whether that comes from a slope, a rising thermal, or a tow line. This category brings together RC sailplane kits and gliders spanning a range of wingspans and flying styles, from small park-sized ships to full-length soarers.
Flair Designs
The Flair West Wings Merlin at 890mm (35 inches) offers a compact glider project, while the Flair Heron steps up in size for a bigger presence in the air. For aerotow and towed launches, the Flair Tow Release provides the hardware side of getting a glider up to height.
Slope and Scale Soarers
The Fledgling 71 inch slope soarer and the Albatross 100 inch glider suit open slopes and larger air, and the Alexander Schleicher K8 models a classic full-size sailplane for builders drawn to scale subjects.
