40% K8B from Phoenix
selleri:
Yebb, the one and only, with updated wing panels, ordered it for my mate so I'll post some pictures along the way.
Largest sailplane and also largest model (in wingspan not %) in Iceland. Bought in the UK, Al's Hobbies got it from Hyperflight(they didn't want to ship it, can't blame them after seeing the original box) for me and reboxed it so it would survive the trip overseas. Top service as usual!

My 33% Ka-3 looking small on the box.
Unboxing the boxes.
I wonder who this wood is that builds the models? :roll:
Wingtips!
Small pilot.
One wing.
Looooong wing!
Fred:
Nice one! :clap:
I had the pleasure to try one quickly last year. Lovely model, fly like a trainer! (with the original bendy wings...)
selleri:
Good to hear, my mate is known to like his loop and rolls though, will be interesting to see if it holds up. :?
Fred:
Fingers crossed!
Apparently the new wing is much stronger.
At the same time, looks like the issue with the first wing affected only a few people as report from Germany, France etc were good with this model.
Wings bend, but don't break! :?:
selleri:
Both sets came, at least he'll be half way to a new one if something happens. Not sure I'd be feeling lucky enough to try much aerobatics if I had one.
The price is very good though, reason why it was bought along with happy moments from the web/YT, the final price was more than double the UK price though, joys of island living with import taxes, not just VAT. :!:
