Parkzone Radian glider

[Leebert]

Hi all,

I was surfing Flea-bay and saw one of these listed. Can't find much info on it. Has anyone flown one? Anyone know if they are any good?

Many thanks
Lee

Plenty on the Parkzone website about it, including a video - looks nice.

Thanks for that. I notice it's 3 channel. I think I would prefer something that has all the surfaces controlable.
I'm still hankering after an Easy Glider electric or a 'Easy Speedy' (Easy glider copy from Ebay).
Any one have one of these copies?

A search on Ebay found the Easy Speedy. It looks good, servos and brushless motor installed. You need some more heatshrink to cover the motor connectors as they have left them bare! Not sure on what EPO foam is, it could be the brittle type.

Go for it and let us know what its like in real life

Thanks for that.
Another question... which receiver to get (I have a DX7 tx)? Is there any point in going for a AR6200 with the benefit of the satellite rx or is a AR6100 just fine?

The concern I have with the 6100 rx is range and the concern I have with the 6200 is will both rx units fit in the space in these gliders.

Which one would you fit?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Lee

I should think so, gliders are normally flown high and far away. The AR6100 is marketed as a "Microlite Parkflyer Rx" where as the AR6200 is a "Full Range Aircraft Receiver".

Thanks Richard. A 6200 rx it is then
