And will there be a larger battery option to go with the larger battery option?


At this time, the battery system will remain the same for both motors. Obviously a self-launch with the full 25 kW system performance will leave "something less" than 100 km range remaining for self-retrieve at the end of a day.

In a glider this small, larger battery packs would also mean less wing water-ballast for those pilots wishing to maximize overall performance for the glider.

However, Peskze S.C. remains committed to be as responsive as possible to customer input and ongoing refinement of the product. So, unlike with other manufacturer's, customer suggestions are welcome :-)
