Aloha F5J 3-Meter with X-tail
Aloha F5J is an ultra-light competition sailplane from the maker of the highly successful Boom and Stiletto Lift DLGs. Data and experience gained from these F3K models has taken Jim Aero in an innovative, new direction; a new way of looking at F5J.
Aloha F5J has a 3-meter wingspan and flying weight of only 750g. In typical Jim Aero R&D method, the new Aloha F5j was designed using computer modeling and followed by experimental testing. Aloha is built to be rigid and light weight. The wing and tails are made with solid XPS core. Its new family of airfoils have a high aerodynamic efficiency over a wide range of flight speeds and exhibit a very low sink rate. In windy conditions or calm, Aloha covers ground! Plus, its 3m wingspan gives the Aloha the edge in working tight, low level thermals, and its DLG heritage ensures great “hang time.” Two versions of tail are available: V-tail and classic X-tail.
