My first DLG (Discus Launch) glider, I have alot to learn on launching, my first ever tries are in the video, but its alot of fun, one tiny battery to charge, good exercise, cant wait to slope it!
I bought DF's recommended battery pack, and their extensions, they were out of the wing reinforcement decals, but it doesnt appear to need them for my light launches.
I used Emax ES9051 Digital Micro Servo from Value Hobby, they seem to be holding great, and were only $5.50 each!
