Sapphire from Robbe

Details

The SAPPHIRE is the new thermal and all-round glider at Robbe Modellsport. The V-tail increases its maneuverability when thermal circling. The PNP version has servos already installed, electrical connector and original multilocks as wing locks.
The flight characteristics can be described as very good-natured. The SAPPHIRE can be flown as a slow thermal glider or as an all-rounder.
The ready-covered wings are constructed of styro core, fiberglass plies, abachi planking and a carbon fiber reinforced spar. The ratio of weight and strength has been optimally achieved.

Features:

  • Two-part, ready Oracovered Styro/GfK/Abachi surface with CfK connection
  • Continuous sandwich spar (carbon-pine-carbon) for maximum bending stiffness
  • Built-in digital Robbe servos FS-277 with ball bearings and metal gearbox (PNP version only)
  • Ready-made wiring of all servos with MPX 6-pin connectors between wing and fuselage (PNP version only)
  • Finished rudder flaps with mounted rudder horns
  • Painted GRP fuselage with built-in wooden formers and CfK reinforcements
  • Powerful Ro-Power Torque 3526-870 K/V outrunner, optimized for 4S (PNP version only)
