One of our Asian distributers is now doing these ARTF vintage gliders.
We are doing an order with them for some other stuff and fancied getting one or two ourselves.
If anyone else is interested in one let me know ASAP.
These glider are available from a few places in US, OZ etc.. problem is the shipping! the boxes are over 2 metres long and 500mm wide and tall. This makes them VERY expensive to ship by air.
We are already doing an order by sea so we can deal with the customs and cargo handling fees etc..
The price will be around the €450 mark all in.
There is a good bit of info available online about these models below are some link to RCGroups threads
