Our Latest Laser Cut Full Wood Kit - The Stylus 40" Hand Launch Or Bungee Launch Glider

Once again we are very proud to present our latest Laser Cut Full Wood Kit, the 40" Stylus Hand Launch or Bungee Launch Glider. Designed by Carl Dowdy in the late 1980's, the Stylus features a very light construction, Eppler airfoil, and increased wing cord, resulting in a small glider that is a delight to fly, and a joy to thermal in even the lightest of lift. The Stylus is a complete wood kit, so all wood components are included to complete the build.

The 108" 90 to 120 Size Anderson Kingfisher Laser Cut Short Kit

We are very proud to present our latest Laser Cut Short Kit, the 108" Anderson Kingfisher! The prototype Anderson Kingfisher was designed and built by Earl Anderson, a Boeing 747 Captain. It took him 9 years to complete, with the first flight made in 1969.

Standard Piper Cub wings were used, and the result is a fun amphibian which flies like a Cub! We have improved on the original design with redesigned fuselage formers making up the front nose section, simplifying the build, and interlocking parts to accurately create the wing tip floats without having to do any foam cutting.

Solarfilm Factory Closes - Grab Your Solarfilm Products While We still Have Stock

We have some of the last stocks of Solartex available, along with Solite, Airspan, Litespan and Fibafilm. So if you've got a project in mind or on the go, grab what you need quickly while there's still stock available because it's disappearing fast!
