Astrid E – F5J RC glider – 200cm/78in – KIT

Astrid is an F5J class glider – a lightweight glider prepared for engine installation. Structural wings made of balsa and 2mm plywood, together with a carbon girder, provide adequate structural rigidity and simplicity of construction.
The weight of the ready-to-fly glider is about 450g – it is recommended to use lightweight foils such as oracover light.
The glider has an aluminum frame for the motor(included) Hyperflight 1806 – 2450kv (5mm axle) and 25mm cap, which must be purchased separately.
