About Glider
Volo is F5J competition glider, designed by Oleg Golovidov, using stretched to 4 meters SynerJ wing from Gerald Taylor. Solid core construction allow us to make light as well as strong model.
Space Saving
To stand out from others we produce 4 piece wing and two part fuselage system which makes transportation easier and cheaper as the glider can fit into smaller box.
Fuselage
There are two types of fuselage – full carbon or 2.4 GHz friendly version with front fuse part from aramid fabric (only for “standard” and “strong” layups). Our fuselage tip is compatible with 32mm spinner.
Wing Joiners
You may choose different angle wing joiners to better suit weather conditions and pilots flying style
- Main joiner 4˚and 6˚
- Tip joiners 7˚and 9˚
Tailboom
We offer standard tailboom to increase stability; however, you may choose shortened tailboom for better agility.
Customize
For your VOLO we offer six plain bright colors (yellow, orange, pink, red, green or blue), custom color mix of your choice or you may even create your own paint scheme.
