 Philosophy:
Our
goal is to create unique aircraft that are pure fun to fly. Beginners through
experts will appreciate the simplicity and versatility of our designs. We enjoy
crafting quality, affordable gliders that get people outdoors. Enjoy quiet,
clean, soaring flight without the hassles and extraneous costs often associated
with other forms of r/c flight.
We believe in a sustainable business
model. In order to minimize our environmental impact, we use earth-friendly
materials in our kits and in our packaging methods whenever possible. We strive
to minimize our waste by using more efficient manufacturing techniques and less
packaging, and we often partner with local businesses to reduce transportation
emissions.
About Michael Richter:
 For the past 18 years I have
been building, designing, and flying soaring model aircraft. In high school I
began experimenting with flying wings and have since gotten hooked on them for
their structural simplicity. During this time I was inspired to develop the
Weasel design, which I started selling in kit form to local Santa Barbara
modelers in 1996.
I then graduated from the University of California,
Santa Barbara, in 2001 with a degree in mechanical engineering. After returning
from a half year stint in Germany learning full-size sailplane construction at
Schempp-Hirth Flugzeugbau in 2002, I decided to start manufacturing and selling
my own R/C aircraft designs out of my parent's garage, and hence "Dream-Flight"
was born.
Since then, our business continues as a small family-owned
operation; however, things are constantly evolving as we explore new ideas,
manufacturing processes, and basically just follow our passion!
Thank
you for your support and we hope you enjoy our products!
