Aeromodelling Glider Kits
High Wing Glider
A balsa glider with the wing mounted high on the fuselage. The extra piece buys self righting stability, which makes it the steadiest glide of the five.
Why you'll like it
- ✓High wing mount, the most self righting layout
- ✓Four balsa pieces rather than three
- ✓Pure aerodynamics, nothing electrical to go wrong
- ✓Trimmed with clay

Chuck Glider
Balsa, hand launched, no electronics at all. The quickest way to see lift, drag and balance do their work, and the cheapest way to learn why a nose weight matters.
Eagle Glider
A balsa glider cut to a broader, bird like planform. Same three pieces as the chuck glider, a different wing, and a noticeably different glide.
Normal Glider
The plain balsa glider, the baseline the others are variations on. Build this one first if you want to understand what changing a wing actually does.
