Default EPP glider

Hi

I am thinking about buying an EPP glider. A friend of mine has a bullet glider, which I have flown many times, it’s very tough and can go a few barrel rolls and inverted flight.

The other possibility is a flying wing EPP glider. I have seen these being flown and the look pretty good.

Which one do you think will be the best for acrobatics, and fun flying? Also it must be tough (I want to be able to give my friends a flight with no worries!).
Also the flying wing is £10 cheaper!

Here's another flying wing, look the same as the fist one. I carnt tell the diffrence accept, its a bit more expesive

I fly my EastGlider from Multiplex a lot! It is a joy to fly in all ways.

Make a real glider, like a Schweizer 1-26 exact scale. Flies as well as any other. WWII stuff had engines... we didn't win the airwar or support our troops on the ground by throwing our props away. I say if you want to fly a glider, fly a glider.

Hi have been flying for only a few months at my local hill Butser in the UK. A friend suggest I start with a Pheonix model as the whole range is EPP. I bought a synergy and have been very impressed not only with is ability for acrobatics but also for the odd heavy landing. I would recomend a look!!
