Three New Laser Cut Kits - LS-1 60" Glider or Sunspot 121" Glider and the Southerner 60" 30 Size Vintage

LS-1 60" Glider

The LS-1 is 60" Slope Soarer was designed by the La Sierra Slope Soarers flying club in Riverside, California, in the 1990's. So the story goes, that during a club meeting, one member suggested the club should have it's own glider, something indigenous to their club and hill. Check it out on our NZ site here.

Sunspot 121" Glider

The Sunspot was designed in the mid 1940's by Ron Yeabsley as a 121" Free Flight Glider. We have modified the original Free Flight design and included in our kitset an additional plan and laser cut parts for a new tailplane with elevators, and fin and rudder for RC use.Check it out on our NZ site here.

Southerner 60" 30 Size Vintage

Originally produced by Keil Kraft, the Free Flight Southerner was first drawn up in early 1947, but it wasn't until the Mills 2.4 Diesel became popular that the design was revised and updated in 1949, with the result being a Mk II Souther 60" designed around the Mills 2.4 Diesel.
The wing can be built in a dihedral or polyhedral format. We have modified the original Free Flight design and included in our kitset an additional plan and laser cut parts for a new tailplane with elevators, and fin and rudder for RC use. Check it out on our NZ site here.
