The ASK 21 and the MDF Fox r/c miniature gliders from Dragon Aviation were first seen in a recent edition of the BMFA News. Now Ray Jones of Dragon Aviation has sent us more details of these super little scale gliders.

Ray has invented a new acronym for these models - 'SBS' - Shoe Box Scale! Ray and colleague Paul Watkins will be producing several small scale soarers around 40" to 50" span. The first two off the production line are the ASK 21 and the Fox.

Here's some more details. The models have foam wings, vac-formed fuselages and canopy, plus the 'bits and pieces' required. They are very quick to build and great fun to fly.

Ray tells us that more designs will be added soon, including some PSS types and may be even smaller versions of Dragon Aviation's popular Aeromacchi and Fouga Magister. (Click here to see Dragon Aviation's larger PSS models).

The ASK 21 and the Fox are also suitable for conversion to small electric power. Both models are controlled by elevator and ailerons using mini/micro servos and a small receiver.

The fuselage is very easily joined by the builder but Dragon Aviation can supply them ready joined if so required.

Flying is straight forward and in experienced hands they are capable of some fine aerobatics!
