The Gö-3 Minimoa from Schempp-Hirth was the first high
performance glider in the world, that was produced in series. 110
were produced between
1935 and 1939. In the mean time there are only two
flying Minimoa in Germany.
The original is a beauty, a muss for the
vintage friend. In this model, lots of care has been
taken to be as accurate to the full size as possible, so the wing are built up and tells by
them self. The root ribs are cut out and let you see the inside
of the wing structure as on the original. A beauty.
The wings can easily be retrofitted with
airbrakes. The box to recei8ve the airbrakes is prebuilt, so
only gluing the airbrakes in is required. The servo tray will receive the four
standard servos: rudder, elevator, tow release. The elevator can
optionally be actuated by means of two servos.
This Minimoa is not only a 1:5
scale reproduction but it fly like the original, a real puppy.
The choosen airfoil and its built up structure makes
this airplane a great all around characteristics that will fly a
gentle speed. This airplane will do well on a flat field
or on the slope.
