Large all-balsa glider with excellent flight characteristics and very simple construction inspired by the popular trainer RC motor glider BETA 1400. Ideal as a very first model that you can build in a few tens of minutes. Thanks to the precision laser-cut parts, you won't spend a lot of time sanding and cutting, but you'll get there quickly with just acetone glue (Kanagom, L-510, UHU-hart, etc.) and modeller's pins.
The wing is attached to the fuselage with rubber bands, so the MINI BETA is easy to carry; you can easily pack several of these in your car for a Sunday trip or vacation.
The design of the model also allows for the possibility of installing miniature RC equipment - the MINI BETA can fly as a pure glider with a controlled rudder and elevator, or you can motorise it with a small brushless motor mounted on a pylon above the wing - similar to the "adult" BETA 1400.
The kit includes: laser-cut fuselage, wings and empennage parts, building plan/instructions manual.
The MINI BETA model was designed and manufactured in the Czech Republic.
