There is a third 20m flapped 2 seater worth considering... The 20m
TwinShark... Take a look on the HPH website.... www.hph.cz. It is much lighter than the other two 20m flapped two seaters and has a higher aspect ratio as well as latest generation aerodynamics.

All self-launchers in this cla= ss (and ASG 32EL which has similar empty weight) fly very close to 800kg MT= OW without any water ballast. In WGC level competitions lighter Arcus T's (= or those few non-engined ships) have edge in weak weather. I think the gene= ral consensus between 32Mi and Arcus M pilots is that both consider their s= hips to be little better than others... |

If you are looking for a 20m 2 seater electric you may also consider the following

Is that some sort of fuel driven engine turning a generator under the
left wing?Â* How can you call that an "electric"?Â* Seems to me they've just put another layer of complexity between the gas and the prop. BTW, I love my car gas fueled S10-VT.

Hi, How does Arcus compare (any and all aspects) to other modern two seaters? Does anyone have any experience with Arcus EL? S The ASG-32 has a sustainer electric on a stick. If I am not mistaken this is technology developed in conjunction with the German government. |

I didn't track, but I may have more time in 18m configuration. In Europe, land of the actual designer and builder, only 20m mode is legal - go figure. Would not be a problem if manufacturer had completed certification as promised... Some 18m tips are flown in Europe despite that ;-) |
