Cularis ... The high-performance electric glider made of ELAPOR®
The EasyGlider was the first step for many modellers into the world of model gliding and thermals, and now we present the logical development and next step: the Cularis.
• Minimal cost
• Minimal building effort
• Minimal risk of breakage thanks to robust ELAPOR® foam
• Four-flap wing: camber-changing flaps and butterfly (crow) / landing aid function
• Optional electric power set with ample power
• Broad performance spectrum, including aerobatics and thermalling
• Wide speed range
The Cularis can be built as a glider or electric glider.
For the electric version we recommend the dedicated power set, # 33 2633. With the recommended battery this power system provides 6 to 8 climbs to around 150 m on a single charge. If you want more power, simply fit a larger propeller (e.g. 12 x 8” or 13.5 x 7”); this gives a better rate of climb at the cost of reduced motor run times.
The set also includes a glider nose cone in which an optional aero-tow coupling can be installed. The model can then be flown as a glider and launched by aero-tow. The MENTOR makes a great tug for the Cularis.
Cularis - an ideal model for weekend and club pilots
Innovative features:
• The mechanical retainer system engages automatically when the wings are plugged in; at the same time the servos are connected electrically, eliminating the tedious task of connecting the wing-mounted servos.
• The all-moving tailplane is also removable, with an automatic retainer system.
Design features:
• Two carbon wing spars for ample strength
• Like the all-moving tailplane, the wings can be unlocked and removed very simply, making transport straightforward
• GRP reinforcements in the fuselage and tailplane
• Polycarbonate fuselage nose reinforcement
• Wing-mounted servos covered by protective fairings
• All the electronic components have a pre-defined position in the model.
