Foot launchable 3 axis control gliders
If you are looking for a thrilling and realistic flying experience, you should download one of our foot launchable high performance sailplanes. These are amazing aircrafts that combine the convenience of hang gliders with the soaring performance of sailplanes. You can take off and land like a hang glider, but also enjoy the high speed and efficiency of a sailplane. You can achieve a lift-to-drag ratio of about 25:1, which means you can glide very far with minimal loss of altitude. Our sailplanes are fully-cantilevered rigid wings with aerodynamic controls and some even have flaps, but they are also very light and easy to transport. They weigh only about 100 lbs and can be carried on the top of a car. They all have great performance for cross country flying and competition, but they also require skills to fly safely. They are designed for use in MSFS 2020, and they have highly detailed graphics and physics. Download one of our sailplanes today and enjoy the thrill of flying like never before!
Some examples of foot launchable , 3-axis controlleed sailplanes include the Ruppert-Composite – ARCHAEOPTERYX, which can be foot or bungee launched from a slope, winch or electro-drive start from level ground, air tow (max. 100 km/h | 62 mph) or car tow.
The ULF-1 single seat foot-launched sailplane was designed by Dieter Reich and constructed by Heiner Neumann of Germany. Designed for ridge soaring and marginal thermal currents (microlift), it has full three-axis aerodynamic control
