King Condor Glider Kit – 1500mm Wingspan

The King Condor Glider Kit is a precision laser-cut model engineered for efficient unpowered flight. With a wingspan of 1500mm and an all-up weight of 550g, it provides smooth gliding performance with low wing loading for calm-weather thermalling and extended flight times.

The design features a clean V-tail configuration with a torsion spring-based control system, eliminating conventional linkages for reduced weight and improved surface response. The carbon tube for  the boom is light weight and adds rigidity while maintaining efficiency. All foam and ply parts are laser-cut for accurate, straightforward assembly.
