    That looks like a very nice glider. Not really a glider man myself but if I were to get one then this fits in with my scale interests. Seems all my models these days have to be a scale representation of a full size. Looks like it flies very nicely. And what a beautiful flying location 👍

    This looks an ideal canopy to add a pan/tilt FPV system under.

      I think you would find it's far too small. Can't be made deeper as the lipo is at the front.

    • @EssentialRC
      @EssentialRC  Год назад

      They are very different gliders! The Kavan is great for thermalling and pure gliding. The FMS is more for aerobatics. Choose your weapon according to what you like doing 😉

    In UK do you need a license to fly a glider ??

    • @EssentialRC
      @EssentialRC  Год назад +2

      If it weighs over 250g you need to be registered with the CAA and have the provided Operator ID marked on your RC aeroplane. I always recommend joining a model flying club and getting BMFA membership which includes 3rd party insurance.

      Do you need a pilot license to fly a glider? According to the British Gliding Association, who are in charge of regulating everything gliding in the UK, there is currently no requirement to hold a glider pilot license if you're flying in the UK.
