The Easy Electric Glider made many friends all over the world - you only have to search the Internet to find positive comment after positive comment from people who are flying one. This is an ELAPOR foam model - which means that it bounces, and can be glued together with super glue. It has enough wing to make it a decent glider, and is equally at home on the flat or on the slope.

Now Multiplex have come up with a development of the popular 1.8m electirc glider - one modified to take a decent, brushless, outrunner motor and give a magnificent turn of performance. Many fliers modified the original model to take a brushless motor but it wasn't easy and the result was not always pretty (though it flew well!). The new, larger nose is big enough to take "30" size outrunners. It requires a 55mm spinner and the one made for the Cularis by Multiplex fits just right - it fits the nose, has a 5mm collet to attach to your motor and will take any of the folding prop blades with an 8mm hub. I have these in stock at $32.

So - the Easy Electric glider will suit you for a long time to come. It is docile enough, and predictable enough, to be a trainer. It is just right as a second model after an EasyStar. It has been listed on an American web site for some time as one of the top five electric training aircraft currently available. Click here to see it.

The wings are removable and come apart in to two pieces for easy transport. Details:

 
Wingspan - 1800mm
Weight - 980g
Total flying surface area - 41.6 sq.dec.
Controls - ailerons (two servos), elevator, rudder, motor (ailerons up for landing if radio permits)

Prop - folding type.
