Description

This completely new concept combines an attractive glider (or E-glider) with a V-tail fuselage and three different wing possibilities. Each wing connects to the same fuselage.

Triple thermic has a wingspan of 255 cm and is equipped with ailerons and spoilers. The wing section is optimized for thermal soaring and provides excellent flying characteristics and performance. 10-11mm servos are required for the wing.

Triple RES has a wingspan of 199 cm and a more pronounced dihedral than “Triple thermic“. Radio control is rudder, elevator and spoilers. Buy the extra wing kit and add to your Thermic fuselage. Click on the name to see the variation.
Triple speed has a wingspan of 178 cm, single dihedral and long ailerons. The wing section has a straight underside, is easy to build and also ideal for aerobatics and has a respectable top speed. Buy the extra wing kit and add to your Thermic fuselage. Click on the name to see the variation.

The fuselage has a wide nose to accept 28mm outrunners and offers room for a 3S-LiPo up to 2,500 mAh. All versions have a removable canopy secured by magnets and a removable cover on the belly of the fuselage, which gives access to the V-tail servos.

All three versions of the Triple are all-wood designs, putting an emphasis on model building, which has a long tradition at aero-naut. The fuselage is built up of balsa and light-ply; a well thought-out concept ensures a rapid building process and makes mistakes almost impossible. The V-tail consists of precisely laser-cut parts and uses a special jig for good results. The wings use conventional ribs and spars, and just require a flat building board for construction. The trailing edges are built-up components and combine low weight with good strength..

The kits includes all laser-cut wood parts required to build the model, spruce spars, control linkage parts and snakes, and a small parts bag. Detailed building instructions with step-by-step graphics and text will answer all your questions. When building this model, it is recommended that you strengthen the fuselage at the rear where the tailplane commences, and that you make sure you secure the wings with more than just the magnets supplied. The kit comes with a depron foam jig in the bottom of the box – retain it for building your model.

You buy a kit with the wing you prefer, and extra wing kits are available separately. Triple Thermic wing kits are $179.
