One of the most impressive European made sailplanes that we have ever seen, the Indian V 1.96E 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. Topmodel uses
the latest construction techniques such as CNC milling and laser cutting. The wings as well as V-tail are all balsa
built-up, D-box, rib/main spare design. The fuselage is gel-coated fiberglass with carbon fiber tapered tail boom.
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 two piece wing is easily removable
for transport and storage. Each part is carefully hand-crafted with meticulous attention to detail. Value is simply
incredible.
Great starting competition F5J/LMR (Limited Motor Run) or ALES (Altitude Limited Electric Soaring) electric
sailplane.
