Ultima F5J Arriving Soon!

First batch has arrived!

New for 2016 team Vortex introduces a brand new F5J glider: the ULTIMA. The Ultima is the "next step" in F5J evolution. Solid core machined wing cores just like the most modern F3K machines. This resulted in a flying weight from 1063 gram with a 4m  wingspan.  The model is delivered with both 5 and 7 degree wing joiners. 

We have several models ordered, but only a few have not been spoken for at this time. Please emails us if you would like to reserve a model. 

With ballast the gliders weight can increased with 100,200 or 300 gram.
