Graupner Pep

Does anyone have any personal experience with this (https://www.graupner.com/detail/index/sArticle/13121) little balsa model from Graupner?

Other than the write up in RCM&E I can't find anything. To new maybe?

[Mike Stevens]

I have just built one following the article - not quite finished yet and the radio install looks quite challenging...what do you need to know, oh and for those who need it, instructions can be found in English (and other languages) via Graupner web site. No flying vids on You Tube though

I'd like to know how it flys, AUW, etc.

I'm very tempted, but I will also use at the slope, so sturdyness is important. It's this or a MPX Funglider or Funray...

Mine weighs 15oz all up and producing 95 watts on 2S lipo - not flown yet though. Will post a picture later.

Hi chaps, a little video from a cold flying field today. Just iPhone footage but, hopefully, you can get an idea as to how it flies with a zippy set-up.
