HobbyKing Ventus 2.3m EPO Glider (KIT) (AUS Warehouse)


The HobbyKing Ventus EPO glider kit features removable wings for easy transport, an aluminum retract system and working flaps. Finished in EPO foam the HobbyKing Ventus glider boasts a smooth gloss finish that will have you cutting through the air in search of the next thermal uplift.

The long wingspan (2.3m) and short wing-chord make this a fast glider, to ensure agile performance the main wings have twin Carbon Fiber tubing plus an alloy insert. Landings are slow and predictable with flaps down.

The H-King Ventus is a high-quality, original design you wont find elsewhere.

The HobbyKing Ventus also includes a spinner and nose cone allowing you to choose between a powered or un-powered setup. Servo covers, control rods and all general hardware needed to complete this model are included. You will require 6 x 9gram servos for the control surfaces and 1 x 17gram MG servo for the landing gear, A 6 channel transmitter and receiver (Tx/Rx) and either a receiver battery (for an un-powred setup) or the Motor, ESC and Lipoly battery detailed below.
Be sure to order servo extension wires. These wings are long.

Brought from the Aus warehouse along with another model, arrived in 4 days! Excellent quality model, the surface finish is extremely smooth, this is the V2 and has the upgraded wing spars, very strong! The boom to tail join is a bit iffy and will be using thin carbon rod to add strength. Will be using a 70mm EDF instead of a motor/folding prop setup, more for fun than soaring!

This glider is a great kit that goes together well but it helps to have done some building as some bits are a bit tricky. The hinged ailerons and flaps are quite stiff and I found that I had to add a backing plate and screws to the control horns to stop them being pulled out of their slots after epoxying them on. Also don't forget to install the aluminium sleeve with the two grub screws before you join the halves of the fuselage together which holds the wings together duing flight. Long extension wires are required also as the servos are a long way out on the wings. I am using a 28/26 1000Kv motor 315watt www.link it is quite tricky to install as there is not easy access to the fire wall etc. I also found I had to reverse the shaft which was a pain as I had to dremell a little groove in the opposite end for the little clip to hold the shaft in. The plane balances perfectly with a 2200 3S nano tech battery so not sure why they had to add tail weight in the HK video. Overall a great plane and the carbon fibre in the wing is excellent. The wing spar is sloppy so I might replace that with a better fitting one. Also added magnets for the canopy hatch.
