Vintage RC Gliding. 1939 78“ Carl Goldberg Sailplane. Converted from a Belair Models part-kit.

The original 1939 design was for a powered free flight model. I used a Belair Models part-kit and changed the fuselage design to extend the nose into a pure glider. The overall shape of the rear fuselage is the same but the internal structure is new. Moving control surfaces etc have been added and the wing straightened. Overall weight came out just under 1kg. The maiden flight was in just 1-3 mph of breeze.
