I am looking for a small electric powered glider, roughly 3 feet wingspan that can float around pretty well. I want to fly this off my balcony so it must be a hand catch type of flyer.

Any suggestions for the US market?

thanks

TIA

Here you go.

Easy to repair, and since its EPP you can slam it around.

Are you looking for a thermal duration glider or something that can slow fly in your back yard. That would not necessarily be a glider.

James,

Do you have one of those?  How does it fly?   It weighs 23 oz on a 23" wing span.   That must have a pretty high wing loading.   It will certainly be no floater.  That plane  is going to have to fly fast to stay in the air.  My 2M radian, 78" wing span, weighs 26 oz.  Now that is a floater.

No i havent got one, just thinking of odering. I think you would be right, on closer inspection it would be fast. sorry!

That's the shipping weight not the flying weight.
