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.

Most ARFs ( which is what this is ) come with no motor.

You are confusing Polyhedral wing breaks with dihedral

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
