Fly RC Magazine WE LIVE RC
There are few experiences in model aviation more satisfying to the soul than flying an efficient, slow-moving glider that has been launched to soaring altitude by hand. The Libelle takes RC hand-launch glider flying to the next level, building off of the global acceptance of the Dream-Flight Alula. Until now, this type of experience had been out of reach for many pilots for a variety of reasons. The Libelle is for everyone; it can be assembled, balanced, and trimmed for flight by pilots of any experience level.
Libelle pilots will get out and glide faster, as many time-saving tasks have been expertly finished at our factory. Utilizing the most modern materials and foam molding techniques, Dream-Flight has achieved a durable, lightweight, and super smooth airframe. The entire model is comprised of proprietary components purpose-designed for the Libelle. For ease of assembly, all essential areas of the model are self-aligning and interlocking.
