One of the most impressive European made sailplanes that we have ever seen. The brand new competition Elite V 3.1E flies
as good as it looks. Gentle, smooth, and very long flights are the standards for this beauty. The careful use of composites
with competition balsa, creates a good light structure that will hold its shape for a long time. The synergy of low weight
and strong structure is very unusual in a production sailplane and can only be achieved with careful attention to design
and construction. The entire model is constructed using free-flight techniques. Top Model uses the latest construction
techniques such as CNC milling and laser cutting. The wings as well as V-tail parts are all classic balsa, built-up,
D-box, rib/main spare design. The fuselage is gel-coated fiberglass with white finish. Whole model is covered with
Ultracote. All control surfaces are hinged with adhesive tape. This fully built sailplane needs only basic assembly
and motor/radio installation. The 3-piece wing and V-tail are each easily removable for transport and storage. Each
part is carefully hand-crafted with meticulous attention to detail.
Great sport or entry level competition F5J/LMR (Limited Motor Run) or ALES (Altitude Limited Electric Soaring)
electric sailplane.
