Go Bananas! The Banana Slope/Electric Set contains one wing, two fuselages, and two tails, allowing your Banana to fly as an e-glider or as a sloper. Talk about versatility!
As a slope sailplane, the Banana is light with room for ballast so you can fly in a very wide range of conditions. This glider is a bit lighter than our MiniBlade, so if you fly inland slopes, this might be the plane for you! (14Mb Video)
As an e-glider, the eBanana has great handling and is very smooth and docile with excellent 'grip' in the turns. Having both fuselages gives you access to the best of both worlds!
The Banana/eBanana is fully molded with a full carbon spar and huge full span ailerons. The ailerons are live hinged. Taking full advantage of these oversized ailerons, the plans include directions how to install Flaps! The finish of the Banana/eBanana is immaculate, using the highest quality paints in the mold, mirror smooth and with exquisite joint work. The Banana/eBanana is our highest quality 60"glider/electric.
This all molded aircraft is a bit more involved to build, as there are no cutouts for the servos, allowing the builder to decide which system to fly (Ailerons or Ail/Flap).
We recommend using the Hitec HS 125MG wing servos flaps and ailerons. A HS-85BB for the elevator works well, or use two HS-81's for full ruddervator control.
The Banana Slope/Electric Set comes in yellow with red bottom surfaces.
Also available in the following versions:
- Banana (Standard fiberglass version/w-ballast tube)
- Carbon Banana (Full Carbon version/w-ballast tube)
- eBanana (Electric version)
