Powerful electric self launch w/o the FES propeller drag, 45:1, flapped 13.5 meter. Light, small and easier to manage.

Roughly 80k complete (yes, COMPLETE) with trailer. Even better if you order at the convention. That is simply incredible pricing.

I would be even more excited to see this little puppy at the convention floor! I already know what a SH wing with a Maumer winglet looks like. ;-)

Sean ...do you have some sort of hard on for SH?...I celebrate all new designs because it helps advance the R&D of gliding. Why the pale of cold water?
