Phoenix Model Hunter – 4 m electric glider for thermal soaring and aerobatics:
The Hunter from Phoenix Model is a high-performance electric glider with a 4 meter wingspan, designed for ambitious RC pilots who want thermal efficiency, aerobatic capability and premium build quality in one model. Its balanced aerodynamics, precise control and durable construction make the Hunter an ideal all-round sailplane for demanding flying conditions.
Balanced flight characteristics for thermal soaring and aerobatics:
The carefully optimized airfoil ensures neutral and stable flight behavior. The Hunter performs equally well in smooth thermal soaring and dynamic aerobatic maneuvers. Ailerons and flaps provide precise control in all flight phases and allow slow, controlled landings even on smaller fields. This makes it ideal for intermediate to experienced pilots who enjoy versatile flying.
High-quality construction with fiberglass fuselage and styro-abachi wings:
The slim fiberglass fuselage offers excellent structural strength while keeping weight low. The wings feature a classic styro core with abachi skin construction and are finished with Oracover® covering. This results in high rigidity, a premium surface finish and excellent flight performance. The spacious fuselage and removable canopy allow easy installation of electronics and power components.
Smart design details for easy handling and strong performance:
A quick-release wing system simplifies assembly at the field and ensures secure mounting. Combined with a 6S LiPo setup and a 100A ESC, the Hunter delivers powerful climbs while maintaining efficient power usage. This makes it a perfect combination of thermal glider and performance aircraft.
