Royal models' DG-1001 is a fully molded 1/8 scale glider that is sure to impress with great all rounder performance. The compact size and great looks are backed up by great flight performance.
We have asked Royal for some tweaks to the recipe for a more slope/sporty oriented model. With a stronger wing and fuselage, the wing sporting a carbon d-box layup.
The Royal Models are quality kits built by our friends in the Czech Republic. We really like the price for performance ratio of these models. You get a lot for your money. You do a little more work than some other brands, but you also pay a lot less. But no fears, the performance is all there.
The S 3021 airfoil has smooth and forgiving flight characteristics. It responds well to thermal, yet the low camber allows high energy retention on the slope. Great for aero towing, winching or slope. This is an excellent "all rounder".
It features an all molded airframe including hollow molded rudder, winglets, horizontal stab and wings. A clear canopy tops it off and shows your interior and pilot figures.
Detailed cockpit set is included.
This model is for advanced modelers. Much of the hard work is done for you but you will be installing your radio gear, installing the rudder bulkhead and rudder, etc.
Pre installed spoilers help with the landings. You'll also get a good selection of hardware to complete the airframe such as clevises, pushrods, control horns and canopy frame and latch. Instruction booklet and graphics included.
