AERO-NAUT Powerfly
Radio-Controlled Gliders for RC Pilots
Overview
The Powerfly is a development from the Panafly 400 G. The reason for the introduction of Powerfly was based particularly on the outstanding flight performance of its predecessor. Newer motors, gearboxes and propellers, an epoxy glass fuselage, and 500 - 600 direct drive options, flight nicad access enabled by a removable cockpit canopy, all of this makes "Powerfly" very practical and easy to fly. The fuselage was extended by 15mm, the wing wing is unmodified. Almost completely without aerodynamic compromise - e.g. the wing shaping. The Selig-Donovan SD3021 wing profile varies from 9,5% thick to 8% at the tip. "Powerfly" is aerodynamically responsive with a low sink-rate, and good "floatability" for soaring in even weak thermals. A low drag allows surprisingly high speeds without significant altitude loss. Air brake flap installation is recommended.
