Icarus XTail

DESCRIPTION

Icarus  is a newly designed F5J thermal glider, it was produced with CW carbon fabric, made in aluminum alloy mold, using PMI foam technology makes it in light weight and high strength, three-pieces wings, easy to carry, suitable for leisure flight or F5J competition, very cost-effective. It likes a brave man who flies to the sun, it is a symbol of freedom, strength and courage.

Another important thing about the surface of the glider: this RCRCM glider is fully moulded. Mould precision ensures that each glider has a complete aerodynamic layout but in the process of composite production, there is a slight chance of very tiny air bubbles or slight cloth grain. In the unlikely event that these small imperfections exist, they do not affect the structural strength or flight performance.

Glider long term storage: Hang glider vertically to reduce the stress on the glider surfaces to avoid deformation that could adversely affect flight performance and trim.
