Description: A high performance competition discus launch glider utilizing the latest achievements in low re airfoil design and the modern composite manufacturing techniques. Sold as a kit with some pre-fabrication.
2-6 channel discus launch glider Taking the best features of the previous design and improving upon it with the help of the new airfoils, better materials, stronger and stiffer structural components, Taboo XL takes discus launch flying to a new level and is one of the best discus launch gliders available today. The new series of airfoils developed by Mark Drela specifically for flapped wings (AG45-46-47) and used on his well-known glider SuperGee give Taboo XL excellent wind penetration qualities and exceptional thermalling ability. The response of the airfoils to increasing camber is very good making the extra weight of the structure and radio gear not an issue even for a 6 servo plane. With a little trailing edge camber the plane floats like a super light polyhedral floater. At the same time the launch height is amazing with the flaps/ailerons in the reflexed position. Taboo XL was admitted by many people to be the highest launching plane at the IHLGF 2002 in Poway.
