Tera V5 2.25m

The Tera V5 is an attractive high performance electric glider that is stable and manoeuvrable. The model responds excellently to thermals and can also be flown quickly on slopes.

The geodesic wing structure is a work of art and engineering finesse. Apart from looking beautiful it makes the wing more torsionally rigid and allows the lightweight structure to support a fully articulated trailing edge with four servos operating separate ailerons and flaps. This results good controllability and also allows the wing camber to be adjusted for the desired flying speed and flight mode, giving a much wider speed range.

Despite the apparent complexity the included construction jig makes assembling the wing is very quick and easy.
