Notice Ecotop - Page 3 - Wind of Change
THANK YOU
for your purchase of the RC electro sailplane
Wind of Change !
We made a main effort while drawing and building this electro sailplane so that it is the best model you ever built and fly.
We provide you a kit with the highest quality and the best possible performances.
We wish you a great success while assembling and flying your new
Wind of Change.
The success of our Krasivo and Krasivo 2 led us to design and to offer the Wind of Change, which is an extrapolation with a 4-meter
wingspan. The easy to control of Krasivo 2 was preserved, but we allow you to access to a higher class size, giant sailplane with a
model which remains able to be landed everywhere, with his wide flaps which can be used as airbrakes in butterfly mode.
Wind of Change key features
●
The sheeted foam wing is reinforced with glass fiber.
●
The glass fiber fuselage is reinforced with carbon in all the tail boom, and is really strong.
●
The powerful motor make possible to fly without a tug plane and makes it safe to fly at slope. Climb rate : 7 to 8 m/s !
●
Stab is removable for easy transportation and storage.
●
And of course... the model is delivered fully assembled and covered, you just have to make final assembly, install the radio system
and the motor.
With the Wind of Change, you can practice soaring on flat fields as well as for slope soaring. Flying is easy and if you fly with at
ease a 2.5 or 3 meters glider with ailerons, you can fly the Wind of Change. Your first ideal 4-meter span !
Additional informations :
●
Double dihedral on the wing make easy to stay in thermals.
●
The long tail lever arm provides a good stability and make the rudder management easy.
●
Flaps allow to optimize the flight within the whole domain of flight.
●
The thin SD 7080 airfoil permits to fly in quite strong wind.
