Description

The RESilience W Competition is designed as a competition and sport RES F3L thermal glider. The model is set apart from other RES models by its good long-distance performance which allow it to fly quickly through sink. This and its very good thermal performance ensure the model is not only fun to sport fly, but ready to win competitions with ease.

The heart of the model is an elliptical surface wing with a D-box, which increases the laminar flow over the wing, reducing drag. The centre panel is equipped with a ballast box that allows ballasting with up to four rectangular ballast slugs. We recommend our custom ballast set as an accessory. The ballast box is located directly at the center of gravity position. This ensures that the center of gravity does not shift when ballasting. The low-drag fuselage, is only 20 mm wide and very functional.

The Competition wing is compatible with all other RESilience fuselages, especially with the electric fuselage.
See the excellent Resilience RC Groups thread for a lot more info, including a great build log.

Very Impressed

The RESilience is an excellent F3L model. Materials are superb; the plans are complete and clear; parts count is low and performance is great! The high quality of the laser cutting will astound any builder. Mine, empty, breaks the 400g threshold in the right direction, but I have learned to fly in big winds with it: simply stick in the ballast pack (available as an option). Under ballast, it goes like stink, as we say around here. The wing uses the same profile as the Purito (among many others), and it behaves well at any speed. This would make a tremendous second build for any neophyte (I would always recommend a wing based on a carbon tube for a first-time build). For an experienced flyer, this model will be very impressive at any weight or in any wind.
