AERO-NAUT Spike
Radio-Controlled Gliders for RC Pilots
Overview
The SPIKE is a high-performance electric sailplane designed for pilots who want both exciting flight performance and a rewarding, customizable build experience. With a generous 3.45 m wingspan, it excels in fast aerobatic flying as well as relaxed thermal soaring.
The Spike offers exceptional versatility, performing equally well in calm evening thermals or dynamic slope conditions. Builders can personalize the aircraft by choosing between a classic rounded fuselage or a distinctive eight-corner fuselage design. The all-wood kit features laser-cut precision parts, ensuring accurate assembly and an enjoyable build process.
Its six-flap wing is constructed using a proven, warp-free building method and provides excellent control authority. Large control surfaces allow fine tuning for different flight conditions and double as highly effective airbrakes, enabling precise and confident landings.
Assembly is guided by smart building jigs and 3D assembly instructions, making construction straightforward. The partially sheeted wing also allows for creative finishing options. Optimized for efficiency, the Spike requires minimal power and is designed for 3S or 4S LiPo operation with a folding propeller system.
