Taser is a distinctive thermal glider with a wing loading of about 16g/dm2 and handling characteristics similar to those of a DLG. The climb is about 10 seconds for 200m. At the same time, the assertiveness against the wind is very well. With a heavier battery, the model can also be flown with higher wing loading. Find more information in the building instruction.

The first competition success confirms our concept: Patrick Rivet tested the prototype in the French Championship and reached the 3rd place straight away in a starting field of 42 pilots.




Taser is also available in full carbon.
The take-off weight of this version is app. 50g higher.
Details:
 (pictures taken from our last prototype)
Taser is built in well-tried HLG lightweight construction. The wing is made in shell construction with balsa-support material. In the series wings will be produced with 4 flaps to enable precise landings.
The wing is divided in the middle.
The fuselage is made from carbon and from carbon-balsa sandwich. This results in an extremely lightweight design and high strength.
The tail is built just like the wing of glass-balsa-sandwich with single carbon reinforcements. As in the HLG-building the tail is controlled with kevlar wire and torsion springs to minimize the weight.
The two-part wing is attached with 4 screws on the fuselage.
We use / recommend the following components:
- Accus: 800-1800mA/h
- Engine: Size Speed 400
- Propeller: Aeronaut 13x8
- Regulator: Phönix 25
- Spinner: RFM 32mm		  
Engine and regulator are situated under the canopy. The accu is inserted through the canopyand fixed below the wing.
2 servos and the receiver are located in the rear fuselage area.
We fly the drive Outrunner Hyperion G2213 with the propeller Aeronaut 13x8.
   
ACCESSORIES
Protective bags for the wing made of aluminum-coated bubble wrap


Construction:
Fuselage:
  • CFR, CFR-balsa-Sandwich
Wing:
  • Shell made of balsa-sandwich with glass fabric
  • Spar booms made of carbon / shear web made of balsa planked with glass
V-tail:
