Ready to fly Zing Wings
|
The ready to fly gliders models come complete with launchers and are painted with fluorescent paint to
show up well in flight and to make them easier
to find if lost. They only require installing a small rubber band between
the hooks on top of the wings, adjusting
the trailing edge flaps (elevons) to get
a good glide path, and assembling the launcher.
We currently have 3 color schemes, red and
blue, orange and yellow, and blue and yellow. |
| ZB 18 This glider has an 18 inch wing span. Its wings are scalloped on the trailing edges to give it a 'bat-like' look. It launches very high and flies fairly slow. This is a great all around glider and looks impressive in the air. It makes large graceful turns, and requires a large flying area. This is a great glider for pilots 8 years old and up. |
 |
| ZR 18 This glider has an 18 inch wing span. Its wings are are straight with elliptical wing tips. It launches very high and flies moderately fast. This is a great all around glider and is very good looking in the air. It makes wide graceful turns and requires a large flying area. This is a great glider for pilots 8 years old and up. |
 |
| ZB 28 This glider has a 28 inch wing span. Its wings are scalloped on the trailing edges to give it a 'bat-like' look. It has a very good sink rate, and superior soaring abilities. It is a little more difficult to launch than the smaller gliders, but achieves the highest launch altitudes. This graceful glider is very impressive in flight, and requires a very large flying area. This is a great glider for pilots 12 years old and up. |

Zing Wings Kits
| We also offer our great flying gliders in kit form. This allows us to drastically cut the cost per glider to our customers. Currently, we have 2 kit sizes, those being the 10 Kit and the 20 Kit. The assembly process only requires applying a precut piece of hinge tape and the 2 hooks to the top of the wing. Assembly takes around a minute per glider. The wings are white (unpainted), but can be colored with permanent markers or acryllic paint. |
The picture to the right shows the contents of the 20 Kit. The 10 Kit has half the parts shown. |
 |
The 10 Kit builds 5 of each of the models shown to the right, and the 20 Kit builds 10 of each. |

| We offer an accessory pack that contains
2 complete launchers, 10 small rubber
bands
for the glider hooks, and 10 large
launching
rubber bands. These parts come in a
resealable
bag. There are suitable replacements
for
the rubber bands you can buy at office
supply
stores, but we thought this accessory
pack
would be more convenient for our customers. |
