The 

LT 200 Flex

 

is a sailplane of conventional wood construction and designed for light-wind 

conditions. The fuselage is built-up in a layer technique with laser-cut wood parts, the fully sheeted wing 
is of conventional design with ribs and spars. Building materials are mostly balsa and light-ply to achieve 
a light yet strong structure for maximum flying performance. The only exception is the carbon tube boom, 
which saves a lot of weight.

The wings of the LT 200 can be buildt in three different ways. The model can be flown with rudder and 
elevator control only, so that no additional servos are required in the wing. It can also be equipped with 
ailerons and/or flaps/spoilers. Construction is the same for all three options.   Those, who want to add 
aileron and/or flap/spoiler control later, should install the required servo leads right at the beginning, 
because it is not possible to add them at a later stage.
 
Construction should be according to the step-by-step instructions provided in this manual. Use the 
parts list to identify the included stripwood and hardware. Always check that parts fit perfectly and 
correct, if necessary, before you glue. Give glue sufficient time to dry or cure, before you proceed to 
the next step.

We recommend white glue (if not otherwise noted) for gluing, which offers good strength and low 
weight. White glue retains a certain degree of elasticity after the glue has cured and will stand up to any 
loads which occur during flying.

Insert and glue balsa ribs F5 to F8 (2 mm balsa) as well as rib F9 (5 mm balsa) into main spar.

Inner Wing Panel

Place wing jig for inner wing panel on a flat surface and secure with tape. Note that circular 
opening in wing jig is located beneath root rib.

Insert main spar F1 and ribs F2 to F4 (3 mm poplar) into jig and glue together.

Glue together upper wing sheeting F13, F14 (L/R) and secure with 
tape until dry. 

Glue in place upper wing spar F10 (5×2 mm spruce) and clamp to main spar until glue has dried.
Glue in place spoiler spars F11, F12 as shown. Small tabs in the ribs´ cut-out are used as spacers between 
spars and make it easy to cut out spoilers later on.
