HPH 304TS TwinShark RC Glider by KAVAN | 2700mm ARTF

In 1962 Eugen Hänle founded the Glasflügel Segelflugzeugbau GmbH. that soon has become famous as the first company to produce glass-fibre sailplanes in large numbers. Glasflügel’s designs have been always known for innovative solutions becoming standard features of modern sailplanes: quick assembly systems for wings and tailplane, trailing edge airbrake-flap combinations, highly practical cockpit and control system design and many more. Unfortunately, after the untimely death of the founder in a flight accident in 1975, the company encountered financial difficulties; it was finally dissolved in 1982.
In the middle of 1990 a young Czech company called HPH (already established as a museum quality scale model manufacturer) restored the production of one of the latest sailplanes designed by the Glasflügel - Type 304. The manufacturing plant in Kutná Hora (central Bohemia) started with the HPH 304CZ built using the original moulds and jigs, later upgraded to 15 metres FAI class HPH 304C Wasp; in 2006 they introduced a brand new 18 metres class design named HPH 304S Shark and finally the 20 m two-seater class sailplane HPH 304TS Twin Shark in 2017. And now you can enjoy flying with our 2700 mm wingspan semi-scale model of this beautiful sailplane powered by a brushless motor.

Does it come with a drone to follow it around like that?

You need to find a good North American distributor to sell your fine products.

Great looking model, but am I the only one that _detests_ drone videos, fine if the drone is sitting stationary, but trying to rotate around the glider as it flies just makes the glider look as if it is a couple of bits of palette wood flying rather than a graceful glider. /rant 🙂

Das Modell sieht prima aus, aber das Video ist pure Effekthascherei und ermöglicht keine Erkenntnisse zum Flugverhalten.
