Why are so many of Nitros product decription incorrect?
This is just one of MANY planes that have incorrect product descriptions:
http://www.nitroplanes.com/4vedi4marfgi.html [link]http://www.nitroplanes.com/4vedi4marfgi.html[/link]
Brand New Giant Scale Ventus RTF Scale Electric RC Glider DISCUS 2CM at 4-Meter Wing Span makes for an awesome almost ready to fly radio remote control electric flying machine.
NO electric motor shown at all WHATS UP WITH THAT????
The 4-meter sports a three-polyhedral-break wing with high aspect, drag reducing winglets.
WING is completely FLAT, no diherdral at all. HELLO ????????
wing incorporates flaps
BUT NO mention of flaps Here: Radio: 5 Channel, 6 servos (4 mini, 2 standard) Aileron, Rudder, Elevator, Brake.. WHAT GIVES ??????
These models feature removable elevator and a detailed cockpit.

Quoting from an on-line reference on wings.
"Polyhedral" wings break the wing up into two or more panels per semi-span"
The rest are errors because the model is being confused with the CMP Ventus which is different...

You might have something there ....never heard of polyhedral....of course p[olydihedral is more than one "bend" in the wing.

Don't confuse "never heard if it" with being incorrect. Think of it as a chance to learn
Di means two, poly means many
The correct term is polyhedral
