I have had my current ASH26 since 2006. Absolutely superb model.

Ever use it for thermal? I had some one asking how it would do. I use mine only for slope, and it is fast.

@@sdmoller Yes, It tows well. A little brake is used on tow to prevent it overtaking the tug. I needs good thermal lift, but if you find it, it thermals well with a little flap.

Thank you for putting this video together! Your answers to my previous questions were more than I could have hoped for. Beautiful bird.

You're most welcome. If you have any other questions etc., please just ask. You can order this or any Paritech model directly with them. If you choose this one for soaring I would make it an FES (motor in the front) which will not add much weight to this model as there is a bit of lead in the nose to balance her. I believe she is about 14 lbs ready to fly that is with (2) 2200 mAh 2S LiFe batteries up front too.
