FES Ex-Uni 6 and Uni 8 systems
Interchangeable
A very easily removable propeller driver transforms your scale glider from an e-model to a pure glider and vice versa in seconds.
A slight pressure on the locking pin of the prop adapter is enough, and you can pull off the prop and prop adapter. The model is still a pure glider with the option for self-launch. It just can’t get any better. Also perfect for static displays and exhibitions. Adaptable to various engines and models.
Self-starter
So rubber ropes or starting carts are no longer necessary and the small propeller lays flush on the fuselage.
Internationally, the name “FES” (Front Electric Self-launch / Sustainer) has prevailed for this type of drive. Of course Hacker Motor also offers some drive combinations. Usually large gliders from 4 – 5m wingspan and larger are equipped with these drives.
Large gliders of up to 45 kg (99 lbs.) fly with A60-L glider series motors.
