Pichler DFS Weihe / 2770 mm wooden kit

The original DFS Weihe was designed in 1938 by H. Jacobs at the German Research Institute for Gliding (DFS). The aim was for the Weihe to surpass the then very popular Rhönadler. The airfoil profile was actually taken from the heron. This model is a very beautiful laser-cut wooden kit of the finest quality.

The model can be built either as a glider or an electric glider. The installation of electric flaps is possible at your discretion.
