Rob Thomson Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 A month or so back I decided on impulse (again) to add one of these Gliders into an order I was making.http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__29764__Mini_DLG_Composite_Discus_Launch_Glider_950mm_PNF_.html?strSearch=dlgToday... it arrived.First thoughts..... this actually looks quite good!The build of the model was simple.Screw on wing.Screw on tailAdd rx and battery.Balance point close, and a short glide across the garden proves it is ok.Total build time: 15 minutes!!No idea how well it will fly, but first thoughts are that it will fly rather well indeed!I will report back tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Very nice Rob I was looking at these a few months back and was quite tempted. I would be a great little plane to take up the school field after work. Let me know how she flys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Thomson Posted June 18, 2013 Author Share Posted June 18, 2013 Right.Took 30 mind out today to chuck this one around the park.It flies well. Nothing fantastic. It will not compete against the top dlg 's, but it is a smooth and easy flyer.I sk happy overall - it makes a nice Gliders for the luggage shelf!
