The FES system allows the pilot to take the two batteries to home for charging. The batteries in the AS34 are in the wing. It isn't clear but it seems you have take the whole glider to a power point. If so, it might limit its appeal unless you can park in hangar with a power supply, or fly at an an airfield that provides electricity to every trailef.

You may also be able to use a small 2 to 3 KW portable generator to charge the
glider. Quiet, and inexpensive compared to the glider. Being able to remove the
batteries is a real convenience if you don't have electricity nearby.
