Ventus 3 - 4.8m
The moulded Ventus 3 is a remote control scale sailplane with a wing span of 4.8m. The slimness of the wing makes the model particularly suitable for thermal and slope soaring. When piloted correctly, the production technology allows for the model to perform successful aerobatics. The model comes equipped with winglets, which improve circling at minimum speed by decreasing induced resistance.
The fuselage of the Ventus 3 is made of fiberglass. The cockpit is equipped with a moulded seat. If the customer wishes, the cockpit can be custom equipped with seat covers, upholstered side panels, control levers, a control panel, microphone and map. The canopy opens to the side just like the real sailplane.
The wing is a composite of fiberglass, carbon fiber and Herex sandwich materials. The wing spar consists of carbon roving and fiberglass sandwich web filled with balsa wood. The split flaps change the curvature of the airfoil. According to the modern aerodynamic concept a three-times-defracted wing profile ensures optimum stability during circling. The attachment of the wing to the fuselage is carried out by the extention of the wing spar and secured by a pin, just the way it is in the real sailplane.
Ventus 3 comes equipped with Schempp-Hirth air brakes, airtow release mechanism and retractable landing gear. Instead of the standard retractable landing gear the model can be fitted with a folding retractable landing gear, just the way it is in the real planes. The model has the original true scale sailplane livery applied. If the customer wishes, the colour of the standard decals can be changed or these can be completely custom made.
The model can be supplied with other cab variants or building materials and color versions.
With basic equipment, the Ventus 3 requires ten (10) servos, i.e., elevator, rudder, ailerons, flaps, airbrakes, retractable landing gear and airtow release mechanism. If modified as an M version, the model requires an additional servo for the retractable pylon.
The sailplane Ventus 3 with 4m wing span can be easily transported in our moulded transportation Cobra trailer on wheels, which we developed for models of this size.
