Tweaked Glider (Blanik Based)
75 Trolxer
7.3 years ago
So, this is basically the same thing as one of my other gliders with was based on the Blanik L23, however this one has a few tweaks to design and performance. It basically has the same glide ratio, but attains the same glide at slightly higher speeds and has a higher max speed as the previous one. (Other differences include a longer nose and overall length, smaller horizontal stabilizer and moved forward more, the swept wings are not as swept forward, and a red beacon light added on top of vertical stabilizer) Questions, suggestions, or tips? Feel free to share :p
