Zephyr 2 HLG

[Mark Miller]

The ZEPHYR family of sailplanes were designed by Bob Owens. With his permission Isthmus Model Company is proud to offer the Zephyr 2 HLG to the public for the first time in kit form. First seen as a plan in the May 1981 Model Aviation, it was one of the earliest hand launch sailplanes available. It has been completely redesigned by Isthmus Model Company to be more in tune with the modern hand launch sailplane. The wing has been stretched to the full 1.5 meters and the fuselage is longer in the forward section to be able to balance with today's lighter radio gear. It retains every bit of the beauty and grace which the 1981 version had. Weight is 8.5 to 9 ounces with 2 HS-55 servos, a Hitech 555 Rx without the case and a 4 cell 110 mah battery. It's proprietary airfoil and optimized wing planform provide outstanding flight characteristics. If you have been looking for a fun, easily built old school HLG this is the kit for you. Winner of the 2003 Woodcrafters 1.5 meter mini hi start event. This is a fun sailplane which you can easily put in the car and go to most any field and throw.

First production run is ready. $69.95 Contact me at the email below.
