The new Turnado V3 Glider version fits seamlessly into our program for glider nose drives/FES. Due to the shaft extension with the built-in support bearing, this drive can also be installed in slim glider noses.

– Shaft can be easily moved by loosening the three M3 screws on the back. The model can be converted back to a glider within a very short time. E-flight and glider towing possible in alternation.
– is based on the 1000 times proven Hacker A50-Turnado
– free shaft with 6mm diameter, for the use of the usual prop drivers and scale spinners

Application examples:

Glider nose drive/FES:
– suitable for gliders up to ~9kg: 5S LiPo, RFM 17×13, Master Mezon 120 lite (power consumption ~70A in flight)

– perfect as a nose drive for starting on your own landing gear with a small propeller.
– suitable for gliders up to ~14kg: 8S Lipo, RFM 13×10, Master Mezon 120 lite (power consumption ~65-70A in flight)
– suitable for gliders up to ~16kg: 8S LiPo, RFM 14×10, Master Mezon 120 lite (power consumption ~75-80A in flight)
