- We finish up the test fitting and prototype phase and get into actual production and test flights!
It's been a long process but very rewarding. Look for updates soon on our website if you want to get the V-tail parts for your Vertigo or would like to order a V-tail Vertigo.
Flies really good!

It has superb, neutral spiral stability and that’s what’s needed for a winning design.
What a cool bird. I have low-tail, T-Tail and a V-tail and i love them all. My biggest is a Epsilon XL3 4 meter glider. And then there is my Staufenbiel Mantis 2,9 meter - the V-tail glider. And the smallest is my Robbe Mistral 2 meter wingspan.
T-tails are awesome, they used to be common in 3m and larger contest sailplanes. Hope some designers bring them back for F5J.
Nice work, nice maiden 🤘
Very interesting video. I’m new to F5J, at present I don’t own one but I’m really getting into the videos you have put up and really enjoying them. I have sourced an RES V tail glider as a first step into thermal gliding. So first question and sorry for the newby ask but less down throw than up, is there an approximation on the offset for a V tail to give a starting point to have good turning of the glider.
Thanks for your vids, and well done with the V tail exercise, it flies great.

How is it for someone who is getting into 4m carbon for the first time. Coming from a pulsar. Is it stable and forgiving?
