Aerodynamics:
We
have developed a modern and fast airfoil for
Pino. The thickness is only between 6,16%
and 7,58%.
The aerodynamic design includes 5 different airfoils.
So there is the optimum airfoil for every spot on the wing.
The
creation of the airfoils was done with X-Foil, the wing
aerodynamics with XFLR5.
Flaps and the low weight provide good
slow flight characteristics.
We
chose an all
moving tail for the
elevator for a quick and easy installation and
for performing abrupt aerobatic maneuvers.
In addition, Pino has extra strong airbrakes, which
are especially helpful on the slope.
A high degree of prefabrication ensures low building
effort and time.
In
addition, it was important for us to use the most modern
materials and technologies, such as IMS Spread-Tow from
Russia, 26g biaxis non crimp carbon (Carboline), black-colored
glass, full core technology, spring-loaded contacts for
electrical connection and many more.
Pino
best described in a few keywords:
-
great dynamics thanks to modern aerodynamics
- very agile for optimum aerobatic fun
- easy to control in the border area therefore
- optimal thermalling characteristics and
- dead easy handling
- universal application
- due to the moderate size ideal for transport in
your car or backpack

| FUSELAGE: |
|
| The
fuselage is a carbon construction using 39g
biaxis non crimp carbon. |
|
The
fuselage cone is manufactured in black glass to ensure good
receipt of 2,4GHz.
(Shown here on the example of Pino medium.) |
|
The
servos for controlling the stabs are situated
in the fuselage. The servos are mounted in pre-cut
holes (KST X08-V3) inside
the fuselage cone.
(Shown
here on the example of Pino medium.) |
|
|
The
wing is placed on the fuselage from the top and fixed with
screws.
The electrical connection is made
with spring-loaded contacts.
(Shown
here on the example of Pino medium.)
|
|
| The
model is also available as electric version. |
|
| WING: |
|
|
The
shell of the wing is produced as a sandwich construction.
The outer skin is made of
26g biaxis non crimp carbon. The
surface of the wing is left
in visible carbon.
|
|
Precise
and simple mounting of the levers by prefabricated
recess: Just put in lever, superglue, done.
Gap
covers of the control surfaces on wing and tail are made
of a special masking tape as it is common with passenger-carrying
high performance gliders. The advantage: less disruption
of the flow and lower weight than the conventional
resin-based gap sealing lips.
|
|
| The
servo boxes were designed for all standard servos,
specifically: KST DS135MG for PINO medium (see picture) and
Dymond D60 for PINO lite |

| All

|
| Carbon

 |
| STABILIZER: |
|
| The
rudder is built in full-core-construction with Rohacell
as core and 26g biaxis non crimp carbon
as outer skin. Linkage
and levers for controlling the elevator are already
integrated inside the rudder. |
|
| The
elevator is also made with a core of rohacell, but
coated with 26g
biaxis non crimp carbon.
The surface of the elevator are left
in visible carbon. |
|
The elevator can easily be removed.

of Pino medium.) |

| ACCESSORIES: |
|
| Kitparts are enclosed in kit. |
|
| Protection
bags made
of
welded bubble wrap coated
with aluminium foil
(not included in kit) |
|
|
Protection
bags made
of stitched foam material coated with aluminium foil

|
|
| Servos
are
available at extra cost. We recommend KST X08-V3 for
the stabs and Dymond D60 for aileron and flap. |
|
|
Matching
servo frames for the wing servos are included, if
you order servos.
