This is an absolute gorgeous
reproduction of the famous DG-1001 from Dirks-Glaser.
You have here an accurate 1:8 scale version, in all molded technology. Lots of
details have been kept and you will see, the look is fantastic. Original forward
swept wing plan-form, double taper elevator, installed airbrakes,
seats and instrument mushrooms, double canopies, all just like full size.
Retractable landing gear is optional. Imagine all the work to do all these details.
Even flying you won't be on rest. Nice gentle
handling, smooth stable turns easy to roll into thermals. Neat on the slope with
nice balanced sturdy wings. Excellent on small aero-tow, or with a motor in the nose for FES, so you can use its full
potential, nice scale climb and ending with low scale passes over the field. It
will do aerobatics as well.
The kit comes with a nice molded white fuselage, clear canopies and fiberglass frames,
cockpit seat and instrument mushroom. Wings are hollow molded with airbrakes
installed, ailerons live hinged. Wing tips hollow molded as well with a perfect
fit.
Radio requirements are four micro servos for the ailerons
and airbrakes,
one micro for the elevator, one for the
rudder servo and a last one for the tow release. An additional servo might be installed for the landing gear.
DG-1001, can easily be electrified with motor in the nose, inquiry for
