Orion school glider 1645mm Hiesbök

Product detailed description

Balsa school RC glider model kit. Suitable for moderately advanced modelers and RC pilots.

The construction of the model is designed to minimize errors arising during the construction of the model. The model has a wing with the profile of the AG series with a more robust construction. The turn signal and elevator are controlled. Conversion to an electric drive is possible.

length: 850 mm
span: 1645 mm
weight: min. 450 g

What you should know before buying a model.

Building blocks are not toys.
Their construction and operation requires concentration and discipline.
The kits are divided into several categories, according to the skills of modelers.

Budding modeller,
is a modeler who has not yet mastered the basic modeling procedures and techniques. He has no idea what, for example, the center of gravity of the model is, he does not know how to read technical drawings, he cannot decide without help which glue or varnish to use in a specific situation.
Kits are available for beginning modelers, which contain more detailed instructions for building the model. The models mostly have a solid wing cover and may not even need to be painted. By building such models, you will gradually gain the necessary practice for further constructions and flying with them. They don't fly the best, but they forgive many mistakes made during the construction and alignment (setting) of the model.
School models are also useful for novice modelers to gain modeling experience. These are already more complex models, which are already specially aimed at gaining a certain experience and practice. For example, coating the wing of a model. The instructions then do not cover all the basic modeling procedures and techniques. They focus only on new used techniques or technologies that are used in the kit.

Advanced modeller,
is a modeler who already has practical experience in building models and flying them.
It has already adopted modeling techniques and technologies. When building the model, it is based on the technical drawing. The model manual focuses only on a brief description of the assembly of the model.
These models are not primarily intended for beginning modelers. A beginner modeler can assemble this model, for example, under the supervision of a leader of a modeling club or a more experienced friend.

Experienced modeller,
is a modeler who is able to adapt the construction of a model from a kit according to his needs. For example, he equips a free model with an electric motor and RC equipment. The instructions serve only as an information aid for assembling the model.
