Default return to hobby

hi guys,

now after 10+ years of my high school, university, and all the usual time consuming stuff, i got back my modeling hobby, since i have again a bit more extra time on my hands.

at that time i built several .40 class trainers, and sailplanes like the Spirit from great planes. Back then a friend of mine built multiplex panda, which was really good kit, straightforward to build and seriously enjoyable for flying, especially due to its light mass with good HLG capabilities.

and, since my girlfriend also showed interest for RC models i'm seriously thinking of getting back to it. Here comes the catch:

i prefer balsa kits, since i enjoy in building em' too...
i could still purchase my very first sailplane: Spirit - Great Planes, but the trick is, that its very heavy and so appropriate only for slope (no slopes here) or HI-start with tow-plane - and since we don't have a second modeler for towing, that's impossible...

can you please help me to find similar balsa kit to Multiplex Panda? Or even better, if someone has it at home boxed (new) we could discuss price.

by the way, panda got discontinued in all these years :'(

thank you and best regards,
Marko

Here is a nice 2 meter Glider. VERY good flyer yet designed for new pilots. Can be made electric powered.

Goldberg's Gentle Lady is also a pleaser and a classic. There are many more! good luck.
