SANDA MODELS Arsen El
Radio-Controlled Gliders for RC Pilots
Overview
The Arsen, one of Sanda Models best performers, is released as an electric glider. The Arsen El has a gorgeous planform with generous control surfaces and plenty of room in the nose for a large motor and battery.
The wing is molded from carbon and fiberglass. In between the layers of carbon and glass is a layer of Herex foam which separates the inner and outer wing skins, creating laminated panels that are high in stiffness and resistant to torsional loading. The fuselage is molded from fiberglass and is reinforced with carbon tow in the high stress areas, resulting in an airframe that is light yet stiff and remains reasonably flexible.
The control surfaces are pre-cut, hinges relieved, and gap wipers installed. The V-tail control horns come with the ball links pre-installed.
The Arsen El is smooth and graceful, tracks beautifully, and retains energy like a champ. All in all, an excellent molded composite sailplane.
