Product Name
OK Model Grunau Baby [OKE-12178]
Brand Introduction
OK Model proudly presents the quality and technical expertise of RC models manufactured in Japan, offering the best flying experience for aspiring pilots.
Product Description
The second iteration of the semi-scale glider under 100g, "Grunau Baby". The actual Grunau Baby was developed in Germany in 1931 and over 6000 units were produced across 20 countries as a representative pre-war trainer. The OK Model has not only scaled down to about 1/15 but also developed a structure and strength allowing for flight under 100g.
The wing supports, which significantly affect flight performance, are intentionally omitted. It can be modified and assembled as a display model. As a super small laser-cut balsa kit, it requires precise craftsmanship with a 7% wing thickness rib structure. Enjoy a light flight while respecting the manners while utilizing ridge soaring from the wind.
The kit does not include some linkage parts. The aircraft in the photo is an example that has been assembled and covered with film.
