Description

Shrike Glider 1450mm (57") Wingspan - PNP from Skynetic - SKY1001-001

A new brand of foam electric aircraft for newer pilots looking to broaden their flying experience across a range of RC airplane types. Skynetic advances our vision of a global audience discovering the fun of RC Flight.

The Skynetic 1400mm wingspan “Shrike” Glider is a convenient and low-cost entry into the world of RC Airplanes that raises the bar for foam electric sport gliders. Ideal for newer pilots wanting to expand their skills with confidence with easy to fly airplane, share the gift of flight with a friend, or push your own skills further with the Skynetic Shrike!

Fan-Favorite

The Shrike’s stability and endurance have earned it a reputation among RC pilots as one of the best motor gliders in the foam electric category!

Convenient Assembly and Transport

Featuring an innovative wing-mounted electrical connector and spinal pin, attach the main wings in seconds without any tools or wiring. Conversely, remove the wings in seconds for easy transport or storage.

Tool-Less Propeller Assembly

No tools are required to assemble the propeller base, folding propeller blade mounts and captive spinner. The entire assembly can be removed in seconds for servicing or replacement

Flaps

Designed as an excellent trainer for newer pilots, an exciting acrobatic sport flyer, and a stable slow speed platform for FPV or general leisure flying, the Shrike uses pre-installed flaps to shorten take-off distance, improve stability, and increase lift

High-Visibility Scheme

A high contrast, asymmetric colour scheme in brilliant green and deep blue vinyl decals provides easy visual orientation for new pilots. Two 8mm LEDs also offer minor orientation assistance during landing in low light conditions.

Cost-Effective

The Shrike’s efficient aerodynamic design provides extended flight time using a common 3s 11.1V 2200mAh LiPo battery and fully enclosed control linkages in the tail for enhanced aerodynamics.

“Full-House” Controls

"Full house" control surfaces include individually driven flaps, ailerons, rudder, and elevator, allowing RC pilots to utilize the full range of aerodynamic controls

Efficient

Fully enclosed control linkages in the tail reduce drag and increase aerodynamic efficiency. Aeration inlets draw cooling air in from the spinner and nose to cool the internal electronics

Expandable

A thoughtfully designed battery bay allows ample space to safely fit the flight battery and a modern gyro stabilized receiver according to your preference

Strong and Durable

Carbon fiber spars reinforce the wing and fuselage, and plastic shrouds protect the nose and belly from damage during belly landings.

Versatile

Designed as an excellent RC Trainer for new pilots, the Shrike is also an exciting acrobatic sport flyer that remains well suited for general leisure flying. It can also serve as a stable slow speed platform for FPV (First Person Video) equipment.
