E-Flite: Ascent
Model Airplane News, Dec 2002
AIR SCOOP
Though somewhat new to the market, E-Flite is a name we're quickly coming to trust to provide the highest quality sailplanes, and its products such as the new, almost-ready-to-fly Ascent prove that our faith is justified. E-Flite has combined the convenience of a park flyer with the excitement of a high-performance soarer to produce a 54-inch-wingspan model that's sure to appeal to park-flyer and sailplane enthusiasts alike. Powered by a Speed 400 motor with folding prop (included), the Ascent features a lightweight fiberglass fuselage with a bolt-on wing. It requires an 8-cell, 800mAh battery pack and sells for $69.99.
