Review by: Carl Shorter
I've been learning DLG for the past year and love, and decided it was time to go high end and chose the Vortex 4 for the 4 servo wing as I often have to fly in not so ideal conditions. Went for the strong layup for the same reason. Obsoletely beautiful construction and design. Looking forward to building this for 2023! Great service from Neil. Love the strong boxes he uses for safe delivery.

Vortex 4I've been eye-balling this ship since it came out...I have the Yoda which has seperate flaps & ailerons and it is a fantastic flyer so I'm sure this "4" will be great also...I capitalized on the orange feather livery, got here in Orange County, CA in 5 days, we tore open the box like a snot-nosed kid at Christmas and there it was....a beautiful DLG ship!!!
