What did I buy? Shredair ??? Help!
I went to an estate sale today. At the sale was this Shredair glider. Looked pretty nice so I bought it. 127" wing span. V tail, Molded construction. 3 piece wing which appers to have very little dihedral.
Looking at some photos on the web I think it might be called the Stork, but I am not sure. Looks almost new. Came with ballast set and a wing/plane bag. Removable V Tail.
Appears to have Voltz servos. Wing is fairly flat. Adjustable winch hook.
Nose cone design but the equipment is accessed from the bottom rather than the top. There is a bunch of lead shot in the nose. Looks like it was built and balanced so I presume it is needed.
Take a look at the photos and help me identify it. Shredair seems to be out of business so I can't look at their web site and I can't find anyone selling their planes.
Is this an F3J, F3B, Slope glider? What is it?
Will it take a full pedal winch launch?
Anyone have any ideas on how it thermals?
