The DG-1000 is the latest release at Dirks-Glaser. It
declines in two spans, 18 m which is fully aerobatic and the 20 m high performance version.
The design target was to put together all advantages of three current designs on the
market the ASK-21, the Duo Discus and the DG-505. The wingplanform may remember the Duo
Discus and has a quad taper, which improves the low speed handling. The seats have been
rearranged so the rear seat is higher to improve visibility. The main wheel has been moved
forward so that the front wheel could be removed to reduce it's induced drag. We at ICARE
are very proud to offer here a (~1:3.75) exclusive super-scaleTM reproduction of a very high performance
glider.
Never flown such large glider, you will get the
ultimate soaring experience with this high performance glider and be
surprised how docile this glider is in the air, a real performer. The two
wingspans will allow you to explore all the soaring capability, from smooth graceful
thermalling to the taste of adrenalin with thrilling aerobatics. Its outstanding
behavior makes it a great candidate to amazing distances for scale cross country
flying. Again: ultimate soaring!
This glider comes completely built, and
ready for radio installation. Only a few hours are required, before you go to the field.
The sheeted foam wings are glass and carbon reinforced and already covered with
Oracover. Airbrakes are
installed and ready to be connected by the mean of a mini servo. Ailerons and
flaps are hinged ready to hook up. The high
gloss, gel coated Fiberglas fuselage has the wing joiner carrying tubes, the rudder
and elevator installed. The cockpit comes with all main components like the instrument mushrooms,
seats, head rests done, it is the most detailed cockpit ever made. Canopy opens sidewise like the full size.
Landing retractable wheel comes with brakes are installed and ready to work,
like the tow releasel. A small package hardware and
building instructions are completing the kit. If you would like to venture into
large scale gliders this DG-1000 is a must!
We of course also offer the self
launchable DG-1000M, it will come with either the 18" unit standard
or optionally with the 20 to 22" unit and will require 24-30 cells. It will
take off the ground with ease and give you at least three full height
launches.
Radio requirements are two micro servos for the ailerons,
two for the flaps and two additional micro servos for the airbrakes. Four regular servos
for the elevator, rudder and retract. Additional servos might be installed for
aerotow and water ballast.
