Do tell, it was delivered unflyable??!!


To be fair, it has flown once. It got air-freighted to the convention
to suck in new orders


I am so happy I did not order one! It was tempting to get such a light motor glider. After so many years of promises I am not sure there is hope for this glider at all. I feel sorry for the people who put money down. Shame on the manufacturer. I don't know what the guy is thinking, this sounds like a ponzi scheme.


Yep. Small, light weight, superlative performance, outstanding battery
run times, modest pricing for a motorglider. Almost sounded too good to
be true.

I feel sorry for people who put money down, but back in the old days,
they were offering big discounts for people to pay up front for the
glider. Sad to see people sell their old gliders to help pay for the
new one, then sit around for years for the new one that never seems to
show up.
