Vista Grande EP Sailplane ARF 100"

Large Size + Electric Power = Superior Soaring

If you’ve flown 2-meter sailplanes and want to try a larger EP model, the Vista Grande has many advantages. With a 100" span wing it handles well in wind, responds gently to control input, and improves visibility. Bold stripes on the wing bottom also help you follow orientation. Electric power eliminates the need for a hi-start, tow plane, or large launch area. You can climb to soaring altitude quickly, coast on the thermals, come down, and do it all again — without recharging.
  • All-wood airframe with expertly applied film covering
  • Brushless motor, ESC, and folding propeller included
  • 3-piece, bolt-on wing for convenient transportation and storage
  • Factory-hinged rudder and elevator to shorten assembly time
  • Center wing section spoiler to reduce speed quickly
  • Large hatch/removable canopy for easy LiPo changes
Tower Vista Grande EP Sailplane ARF - Wing
A three-piece wing makes it easy to store and transport the Vista Grande to the flying field and back. Outer wing panels attach with tape for added security.
Tower Vista Grande EP Sailplane ARF - Center Wing Panel
A center wing panel spoiler controls the rate of descent, so pilots can make controlled, accurate landings.
Tower Vista Grande EP Sailplane ARF - Propeller
The 13.5x7" propeller features a two-piece folding design to reduce drag during soaring.
Tower Vista Grande EP Sailplane ARF - Rudder and Elevators
Assembly time is minimized, thanks to a prehinged rudder and elevators, as well as self-aligning vertical and horizontal stabilizers.
Tower Vista Grande EP Sailplane ARF - Hatch
An easy-access hatch makes LiPo pack changes fast and easy.
