Glider Challenge

420 Jaden24  5.8 years ago

Here is (one of) my entries for the glider challenge. I like the color scheme on it and it glides really well. Hook it on to a tow plane and let go at any hieght! stall speed is a meer 20MPH! Such a simple craft with great climb capabilities. Only one flaw., the controls are really pudgy.
