SOLD SOLD SOLD to Jail.  ENJOY!

Professionally built by Steve Pasierb, I am reluctantly selling this beauty due to a pinched nerve in my lower back which prevents long periods of standing.

Here is a link to the original ad by Steve, which has many excellent photos of the model:

Here is the build thread by Steve on the Scale Soaring forum. Steve put a lot of extra effort into making this model as perfect as it can be. Pictures do not do it justice.

This ASK-21 was designed by Rödelmodell from the original Schleicher factory drawings and specifically designed as a high-performance large-scale model. Besides its great flying characteristics, it is indistinguishable in flight from its full-size counterpart. Tows beautifully for its massive size, is nimble and handles well in flight, grabs thermals easily given the huge wing area, and offers decent speed performance. Will also easily perform a realistic aerobatic routine. Tracks well on landing with airbrakes deployed.

EASILY TRANSPORTED! The kit was designed to fit into a regular sedan automobile – four-piece wings, the fuselage breaks down into two pieces, and the whole airframe can easily be transported in a compact car! Wings are joined with massive joiners for insane strength, the fuselage interlocks where it breaks down and is quickly assembled with four bolts. The elevator is retained with two large bolts. The rudder can be removed by slipping out the full-length hinge pin.

This is a rare opportunity for someone without a large trailer to enjoy a great-flying giant-scale sailplane!

The model is very compact when disassembled and fits easily into my Honda Crosstour.
Also included:

2X PowerBox 2500 mAh PowerPaks
PowerBox charger

The sailplane is located in Canterbury, CT. I don't have the means to safely ship this very large sailplane, but I would be willing to meet a serious buyer halfway within a few hundred miles of my home in Canterbury.

Steve invested over $7k in this build.

$2800. Or best offer.
