Kit Production Stopped for Business
Restructuring:
In order to supply our products more efficiently, we will be
restructuring our business over the next several months by revamping our
production methods and products. To make time for these changes we have
temporarily shut down kit production.
Thanks for hanging in there with
us during this transitional period!

About
Our Gliders:
The
Weasel-pro and
Alula
are small, remotely controlled gliders made of durable EPP (expanded
polypropylene). All of our designs are gliders and thus utilize upward wind
currents (or updrafts) to sustain flight.
Caution - these
gliders are not toys. They are remote gliders that require a certain level of
experience to assemble and fly; however, we do feel that the Weasel-pro can be
a good entry-level R/C glider with the proper aid of an experienced
pilot.
Our largest and most popular glider, the Weasel-pro, has a
35.4 inch wingspan and was designed for light to moderate lift conditions on
the slope. It is a very maneuverable glider, but has very forgiving flight
characteristics, making it suitable for both beginner and accomplished R/C
pilots. This glider is just pure fun to fly!
Listed below are some of the Weasel pro's
features:
- Flies in 5 to 25 mph

- For beginner to expert
pilots
- Easy/fast building

- Crash resistant EPP foam
construction
- Maneuvers like a weasel in
tight spaces

High
Quality, Affordable Kits
Our EPP kits are designed to minimize building time. Servo, battery,
and receiver compartments are factory cut! Spar notches are pre-cut and the
hotwire fuzz has been removed from the computer-cut EPP wings. A full hardware
package is included in each kit. For the amount of work that goes into our
kits, we feel they are practically a steal. Order a kit
