Vortex Ballast

This ballast kit came with more than enough steel rods to make all the ballast sticks I needed. It is specifically designed for the Vortex 3 and there are plenty of weights.

having purchased a Vortex 3 from Neil , (now built & flying ) I also purchased a ballast set, which arrived a couple of days after the DLG, Im glad I did get these as the glider is very light (220gr ) & I found that it needed some extra weight to achieve a good air speed in anything but still air , 230<240 grs seems about right in good conditions , easy to assemble wires & well molded lead weights just clean the wires & CA onto the wire , I covered mine with heat shrink tube to stop them rattling inside the fuselage ,
