Thermal model for categories F5J, RCEN, RCEO, RCEP or good ol' fun at the field!
We are pleased to offer the VP Models as they are true masters of the XPS bagged wing construction methods. The results of this method are very competitive models with a very attractive price point. With a focus on the competition pilot but priced in a range where non-professionals can enjoy them.
The Cubic is a great model with a 3.4 meter span, with all of the features of the 2.5 meter Django, but in a larger version. With large flaps and ailerons to provide new possibilities especially for competition pilots. The combination of S4083 and AG airfoils gives the model absolutely perfect flight characteristics in calm thermal conditions, penetration against the wind and controllability. Full camber control of the wing in the hands of an experienced pilot can ensure a wide range of settings for different climatic conditions.
The D-Box version:
The wing and tail surfaces are vacuum laminated to an XPS core. In a color variant on a pre-dyed XPS core, this was the color is under the laminate surface and looks great. Longitudinal rigidity is ensured by a carbon D-box with a web. Torsional stability is ensured by high-quality glass fabric laid at an angle of 45°.
The Full Carbon version:
The wing and tail surfaces are vacuum laminated to an XPS core. The surface consists of a light carbon biaxial fabric, which gives the model excellent torsional rigidity and significantly higher surface resistance compared to models with glass fabric. Longitudinal stability is ensured by a carbon flange with a web under the biaxial surface.
Fuselage:
The wing is attached to the fuselage from the side via a carbon joiner, no screws. The nacelle is made of carbon fabric with reinforcement in exposed areas. A hand-wound carbon tube connects to the tail. The longer nose of the fuselage allows mounting of new small and light motors without balance problems, for example the XM2225EG. For fans of slope flying, there is also a pure glider version of the fuselage.
