Blade XL

The perfect model

The Blade XL is a real multipurpose glider that will suit either your needs for a fast machine and that is able to slow down and circle tight to catch the lightest thermals. The all composite fibreglass carbon fibre reinforced wing is in two piece for an easy transport, using a RG 15 modified profile to offer the best performance in a wide speed range. The fuselage is strong and big enough to accept standard size servos and a big battery for long flight time. All moulded V-tails are easily removable for transport.
The Blade XL is the best choice when you are going on holiday and in the car you have space enough for only one model: fast and brilliant when the conditions are good, it will surprise you with its ability to "survive" when there is almost nothing good around.
The model needs 6 micro servos (2 ailerons, 2 flaps, elevator and rudder) and a transmitter capable of dealing with 4 servos wings and V-tails. We strongly suggest the use of a good quality receiver.
Available on request also in full carbon version (this one is slightly heavier and most suited to strong flying conditions) with ballast tube; it is also possible to ask for a standard model with carbon-kevlar fuselage
It is now available the special padded bag to safely transport your Blade XL.
