any idea what glider this is?


got hold of this glider, no idea what it is..

says futaba on one of the wings, wooden wings and 2 arms inside for servos

didnt come with any servos or batteries...

main question what what size servos should i use would 2.5g servos work? and what type of battery is best?
i have a 2s 1000mah lipo thats pretty small.. would that work on a flysky 2.4ghz rx? or should i go to a 1s

It may help identify the plane if you could provide closer photos, and from different angles. Maybe an ASW-xx?

Pretty sure it's an ASW-19, but the paint job hurts my eyes.

Most time in real life models look better then photos. Looks like 60's hippie bird.

And dimensions. Wingspan and fuse length help a lot.

Comment about 2.5 gram servos from HobbyKing: I use mine in a 3 ounce sport plane with a motor that has 5 ounces of thrust . . .

More info on the size of the plane- span, length, weight and more pictures would help. The span appears to be at least 6 feet; maybe 100" judging by the span compared to the room. Mini servos should be just fine. Inexpensive full sized servos would be fine at a slight weight penalty. I wouldn't use anything smaller than 25 oz. inches of torque if it's the size I'm guessing.

+1 on the paint job. Could cause nausea at high speeds.

The wingtips have me thinking it's one of AMD's built up wing ASW's but who can tell w/o actually looking at the plane.
Hey Dumball, get that thing down from there & show us what it looks like.
