Balsa Wood Radio Remote Controlled Electric Powered F14 Glider Uzi Aeroplane Laser Cut Kit Wingspan 1400mm Un-Assembled for Adults;Balsawood Hand Launch Aircraft to Build (F1401C)

Slope glider I do not look for it to be thermal type glider. I took all the dihedral out of the wing.

I bought two of these—one for my pops and one for me. I built mine all the way to finish and as a semi-modeler and old school sailplane guy, I was dubious of a few things… but still hopeful.The good—wood is excellent, with high quality laser cut parts. Depending which kit you get—it has everything you need.The bad—exceedingly poor quality iron on covering, I have covered many models, and used a large variety of iron on options from monokote to lighter weight alternatives—the stuff that came with the kit was just awful. The glue comes off the edges and gets on the iron, it fails to stick well to the carbon leading edge, will stick to itself pretty well—till you try to tighten up the areas spanning the gaps between ribs—then it will pull back off itself and leave a sticky mess and or completely pull off an area you had anchored and shrink. Bad times.The tail moment isnt nearly enough—especially with such little amounts of dihedral and polyhedral in the wing. The wing pretty clearly is one they use in multiple models—this one featuring no ailerons.TLDR: a nice looking glider that is tip stall happy, hard to turn, nervous in the air and doesn’t have nearly enough tail moment. Not anything a beginner builder or pilot should try. Could be a good rig with some design changes.
