Ninja.dwg 23kb  Dwg format. Sporty little acrobatic glider for the slope. 
You'll need to do a little work with this one.

Dardo V-Tail Slope Glider  
by Unknown


Dardo.dwg 81kb Nice level of detail in plan to position 3 servos for full control.
Foam core wing. Instructions are not in English, but shouldn't matter.

T-dancer.dwg 112kb Built up poly-dihedral wing, same rib used throughout wing panels, 
but for wing taper to tip the ribs are gradually rotated to reduce cord. 
Looks like a nice one for slope or bungee launch. Easy electric flight conversion.

Paoli.dwg 989kb Built up wing panels, with some jpg pictures for appearance.

Zagi 12 Flying Wing  
by P. Pastorino


Zagi12.dwg 179kb Built up wing panel, or use centre & tip rib profiles to cut foam core.
Pepe advised me that the wing he created consisted of 3mm balsa ribs, and weighed only 480grams! 
This included a direct drive Speed 400 6v motor, 4.7 x 4.7 propeller, a 8 x 500mah battery pack. Pepe suggests
 that flight times are around 4 minutes at full throttle, and easily 8 minutes with throttle management and good
 lift conditions. Sounds good! Thank you Pepe for sending the email to me. 
Pepe has his own web site if you would like a look. If you have translation problems just use the AltaVista translator - it works very well: http://www.geocities.com/aeromodelli2000/index.html
