We stock the full carbon wings for slope flying, but can order the D-box or even glass versions for thermal work if you prefer. The Diana 2 uses the HN-203 airfoil, this is often used in F3B competition models. Thus, you will be able to fly slowly in thermals, rapidly in speed runs, and a good glide ratio. This broad speed range allows you to enjoy a versatile glider. Diana 2 handles beautifully while circling in thermals and is very gentle on final approach and landing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis fully molded kit is coming with a high quality white epoxy Fiberglas fuselage, and has the wing joiner carrying tube installed.
