The
ASW-28 is a nice scale reproduction of the T-tail glider produced by
the German company A. Schleicher, Flugzeugbau, currently in production.
It is the constant evolution of the ASW series and is the new standard class
glider superseding the ASW-24. Improvements are triple taper leading edge and high aspect ratio
winglets.
This model is excellent for aerotowing, and great for
thermalling, as it has very slow flying ability. Stall is smooth and predictable. Able to
make stable turns without tip stalling. If you have access to a slope that permits you to
fly this glider, the flapped HQ airfoil gives you a very wide speed range with amazing
energy retention. You may even afford aerobatics.
This is not a kit, the model comes completely built, and
ready for radio installation. Only a few hours are required, before you go to the field.
The wings are sheeted foam, with carbon and glass reinforcement. Completely finished,
covered, hinged and with Teck spoilers installed. The
high gloss, gelcoated Fiberglas fuselage has the wing joiner carrying tubes and control
linkage installed. Tail surfaces are finished. A package of small hardware and a building
instruction are completing the kit.
An all molded version is also
available. Hollow molded wings, giving an accurate replica of the full size
glider. Clean and accurate airfoil will also lead to great performance
Radio requirements are two micro servos for the ailerons, three regular servos for the
elevator, rudder and airbrakes. An additional servo might be installed for
aerotow. Also
optional is a retract wheel for perfect scale (included in all molded version).
