The latest model from Telink, the Astir semi scale glider based on the full size classic. This model has many unique fetures that make it stand out from the ordinary. We have all items to complete this model to bring out its best potential. Note our version has a different range of options. You can select model only or with the power and/or radio bundle which are better value. We have this model for sale with the best combo. The following packages are offered that have been tested to give you the best performance at a good price. This combination is similar to one used on the Tetra trainer. Light version Model+ 5gm outrunner. + 6amp Esc + 2x 3.7gm servos +300mah lipo + Motor mount +Prop adapter+prop Performance Version Model+ 9gm outrunner. + 10amp Esc + 2x 3.7gm servos +300mah lipo + Motor mount +prop+adapter+prop Below are details from Telink web site . **** ***** **** ***** ***** ***** ***** The shape of the real Astir sailplane was taken as a prototype of this flying model kit.
Very nice video is here.
Contrary to the full-sized aircraft, however, we used a different method of controlling the model: by changing the angle of incidence of each of the wing halves.
Actuated by two servos via a mixer the individual or parallel changing of wing halves’ incidence provides for the elevator and aileron function.
As with the real sailplane, also the model is designed for an aero tow. Because of that the kit contains parts for the controllable tow cable coupling.
To the model also a supplementary power unit is added. This set contains a swing-out pylon and all necessary components (motor, propeller hub, propeller, controller and accumulator).
In gliding flight the pylon is retracted, but once you advance the throttle, the propeller thrust erects the pylon to the working position.
The model is suitable for both slope-flying and thermalling. It is ideal to launch it either by using the swing-out power unit or the aero tow.
The model is viceless, but still it is not intended for complete beginners.
You will need:
RC Transmitter 2-3 channels
Receiver or about 5g
Servos 2 x 6-8gm
Power can be one cell 200-300mah for the receiver (unpowered model) or, 2 cell 250 to 350mAh for a powered model,
List of other necessary material: epoxy glue, medium thick cyanoacrylate glue, connectors for accumulators
List of other necessary tools: modelling knife, soldering gun, side nippers.
List of parts in the kit:
2 x wing half of EPP
1 x fuselage of EPP, in two parts
1 x horizontal tail of EPP
1 x vertical tail of EPP
2 x wing joiner base (glued to the fuselage)
2 x wing joiner base with a bellcrank
2 x wing joiner base in the fuselage
1 x wing joiner 3 x 190 mm
2 x wing joiner safety
3 x wing and fuselage stiffener 4 x 500 mm
1 x vertical tail stiffener 1,5 x 100 mm
2 x servo push-pull rod 1 mm

“Astir“ Powerplant
!!total weight of the powerplant:30 grams only!!
The “Astir“ powerplant is designed to power small models of up to 150 grams weight. It is of a swing-out pylon design, with all necessary components (motor, propeller hub, propeller, controller, accumulator).
On the Astir model the pylon remains retracted in the gliding flight, lying against the fuselage; applying of power (throttling up) causes the pylon to swing up, pulled by the thrust of the propeller.
The powerplant can be used also on other models, both with a pylon or without it.
The package contains:
1 x pylon, piano wire, 1,5mm diameter
1 x tube
3 x end stop, glassfibre plate)
2 x bolt, M2x6
2 x nut, M2
2 x washer, 2,2mm
1 x AC motor with propeller boss, 2000 RPM/Volt; weight, including the boss and mounting flange… 9 g
1 x AC controller, 6 A, weight 6 g
1 x accumulator, LiPo 2S1P, 200mAh, weight 14 g
1 x propeller, GWS 4/4
