World Models Big Wing

Has anyone flown this one? The price is a little steep!! Add six motors......ouch!! Just the glider version is cool though.

Seems like a bigger version of the Geier Flying Wing from Robbe.

It looks like it would be a lot of fun, but as you say, the price is kind of steep for what is a basic, built-up ARF without a lot of frills (glider version that is)

RE: World Models Big Wing

They say it was designed as a slope glider which can also be fitted as an electric glider. No provision for a hook for hi-start or winch launching. You would have to do that yourself.
