The XLT and Great Escape are kinda-larger descendents of the Dirty Birdy line.
XLT wing is considerably larger than the Great Escape - see the chart below (data from bridiradiocontrol.com)
Good fliers and very competitive for their time (got beaten regularly by an XLT...). Haven't seen either one in person since the 80's.

The Bridi website gives details on wingspan, area, etc.
Set up for rear exhaust .60's - tuned pipe ran thru the 'canopy' on top of the fuse.

I *think* they're wood fuse / and foam wing.


The Sun Fli V is an excellent member of the Bridi Kaos family. Some have flown successfully in the past year or so in Sportsman / Intermediate pattern in NSRCA District 1

-it's all wood. Set up for side exhaust engine.

With an OS .91FX (mounted inverted) and fixed gear, and monokote I believe they come out under 7 kbs, and KNOW they do very nicely.
