Robbe Modellsport VAYU flying wing model wooden kit in innovative plywood construction

The VAYU is a flying wing with a wide range of use. The VAYU is delivered as a kit. The laser-cut wooden parts will be assembled and glued with only a few steps in the plug-in box principle. Please read these instructions carefully, even if you have already built many RC models. We have given a lot of thought to detail solutions in order to keep the construction effort as simple and low as possible without neglecting the functionality. The kit is manufactured with modern CNC technology. This gives you the certainty that you will not experience any unpleasant surprises due to mismatched components when building the VAYU. Now we wish you a lot of fun building your new VAYU and especially flying it afterwards.

The assembly of the VAYU can be done quickly and easily thanks to CNC-lasered and thus accurately fitting components. With the help of these building instructions, the VAYU can be built without any problems even without a building plan, the construction is quick and can be realized even for inexperienced model builders in a few evenings. Take some time to study these building instructions carefully before you start assembling. Assembly is done on a template made of poplar plywood using the plug-in box principle. The design allows the wing, including the bottom and top planking and the end rails, to be assembled in one go. This makes wing warping almost impossible! The VAYU has transport-friendly dimensions, a Quick Connect wing lock with Easy Power ON/OFF function, an integrated hook and a ballasting option (optional ballast box # 26950002).
