This is a predicessor to modern molded sailplanes,with fiberglass construction with hollow fiberglass wings in a Vtail configeration.
I am looking for some details concerning set up details, the Vtail retention and finishing the aillerons,c/g ect as I currently have no documentation or manual for this plane .

Wow, I havent thought about Wilshire in decades. I used to sell the Airjet line of sailplanes to her. Maddie was great to deal with. Sorry I have no information for your kit but thanks for jogging my memory.

Hi Mike,

Roland Sommer is the designer & producer of Rowing models. He relocated to Taiwan and now produces the Concept Xtreme, 1 of 3 DLGs that Joe Wurts used to win the F3K world championship in Sweden this year.

You can find his email address on his website: http://www.hkm-taiwan.com.tw/

If you don't have any success you can post a message in the most popular German forum [link=http://www.rc-network.de]RC-Network[/link] or ask me to do this for you in german.


Good luck,
Martin

Hey Guy's :Just a update to start 2012.
I did send a email to the designer/producer of my Merlin sailplane requesting setup information,He has replied and will send me what he can find.
I think that this is Pretty cool !
How many other's are there out that would take time to answer a email of a product they produced 25+years ago,much less when they are currently involved with producing world class/world champion DGL sailplanes today.
World Class for sure !

Please take a second to check out Rowing Models web site { http://www.hkm-taiwan.com.tw/ } they are worthy of your consideration !
