RCRCM 290mm Wingspan F3B Glider – TORNADO

Tornado has been designed in order to obtain a high-performance f3f glider , that is to say, fast, stable and very good grip in turns. The drawing is rather atypical so that the TORNADO is recognizable at first glance!

Glider for intermediate to experienced pilots, Tornado will go where you like in a dream. It is able to fly in virtually all conditions. It is part of a new generation of compact, precision, full composite, hollow molded sailplanes. This new generation of sailplanes are designed and built to be extremely lightweight with great strength and full competition capabilities. Clean, efficient designs are sure to satisfy the most demanding pilots. The 2-piece, hollow molded, carbon fiber reinforced wing has a little bit of dihedral with beautifully curved leading edges and an incredibly strong, full Carbon Fiber, square wing joiner. The strong and lightweight canopy gives easy radio and battery access. All surfaces are pre-painted in the molds for flawless external finish. The whole model uses live hinges and wipers for control surfaces. From its super-efficient V-Tail, to its new larger diameter nose area, this little guy was built for fun! 

"I am very happy to have designed the TORNADO for RCRCM! This glider has been designed in order to obtain a high-performance f3f glider , that is to say, fast, stable and very good grip in turns. The drawing is rather atypical so that the TORNADO is recognizable at first glance!

RCRCM is a strong company of design and manufacturing, and that’s why I naturally approached them to start the production of the TORNADO.

I want to thank the whole RCRCM team for their work!"
