An easy to build, fun to fly glider from Aero-naut.
The Lilienthal 40 can be built as a free flight or as an RC glider. It can be hand launched or bungee launched, and there is even a motor pod option for it too.
As always Aero-naut kits are very well designed, use quality materials and components and their instruction manuals are clear and concise. Many simple jigs are included with the kit that make assembly easy and accurate. This kit is simple enough to be attempted by young folks, especially with a little help from the tall people.
Have a look at the videos below. They will give you a glimpse into the build process as well as the flight performance of this uniquely designed aircraft.
