Looking for a good beginner slope soarer that would be good for LIGHTER winds. Preferably, something durable, and predictable, but still acrobatic enough to keep me entertained. (I usually fly motorized gliders / sport gliders over a flat field.)
Something that would be easy to build / require little to no building, and hopefully easy to repair, since I will probably crash... a lot... So probably something where spare parts are available.
I've so far looked at Dream Flight Alua and Weasel. I also had looked in to the zulu that Aloft sold but looks like it is not available. (And as of this time, Alua is sold out).
Also, I fly with Spektrum, so I just need to find a LemonRX receiver that would be light enough / small enough to fit in the birds.
And finally, for HEAVIER wind days I would convert one of my Conscendo Advanced gliders in to a slope soarer, so I am mainly focused now on a plane for lighter wind days.
so my questions are:
1) Are there other planes I should be looking at? Maybe the FSST that aloft sells? Looks like maybe the FSST is for heavier wind days.
2) Can the Alua trek really be use for both slope AND for light lift flat field thermals?
3) Any real world differences between the Alua Trek and the Weasel Trek?
Thanks in advance.
