The
Slash Electro is 1.61m (63") electric glider for sports flying. This airplane is especially designed for pilots who are looking for multipurpose fast sailplane. Strong enough for fast dives, but still light enough for thermal soaring. Slash has been re-designed for better flying characteristics with new classic balsa, built-up, D-box, rib/main spare wing design. Also included are the fiberglass gel-coated fuselage and balsa built-up tail parts. The synergy of low weight and strong structure is very unusual in a production sailplane and can only be achieved with careful attention to design and construction.
Very well made entry level electric sailplane. Supplied fully covered - the naked photo is to illustrate the construction.
