Description
At FlightPoint we take development seriously and so happy to open pre-orders for our new product – the Lull – 1.2-meter balsa DLG.
1200mm wingspan offers a little more stabilty compared to 600mm and 1000mm models, preserving the manueverability with 2-channel controls.
This is a completerly new model that we designed from scratch, based on the hits and misses from the Shaka and Maverick.
It features a built-up balsa dihedral main wing with carbon fiber spar, leading and trailing edges.
The assembly guide is available online, here.
In order to maximise the launch performance, the wing have no contol surfaces and it proves to be a right choice. This way the wing has no weak areas which may cause fluttering during the initial launch phase.
As a result the wmain wing is stiff and solid and will suite both right and left hand launchers.
The tails here uses 3D-printed standoffs for the tailplane and a specifically designed “boom sleeve” for the fin that makes both parts removable for transportation.
The flying weight is being projected at a 200g point which will make it a great beginner RC glider.
In addition, the fuse is designed to use large 9g servos, say HXT900, which are cheap and reliable, in case you wish to build on a budget.
However, feel free to choose some other, smaller options as well.
Once all tests are finished, we will introduse the fair pricing for this kit.
But before that, grab your Early Bird Deal now to secure the best price today.
The kits will ship later, when we finalize the design.
