The Racer is our latest answer in the high-speed segment.

• Fully assembled (ARF) or ready to fly (RTF)
  
• Significantly improved layup
  
• Additionally 2x24k carbon rovings in the leading edge
  
• All highly stressed areas additionally reinforced with CFRP
  
• Diab Divinycell H35 PVC foam instead of balsa as a support material in the wing
  
• Increased durability and service life
  
• Finished wiring harness for fuselage and wings
  
• Simple protective bags included

Due to its numerous fuselage ballasting possibilities, the wings and an optionally available steel wing joiner, the Racer promises absolute flying fun up to the highest wind speeds.

Without ballast the Racer can also be circled very well and tight in thermals.

Due to the elliptical wing shape, it has a drag-optimized design and impresses with a “sexy” look.
