Aeroic Forza 100" Light Build 2.5m Composite Slope Soarer -Checkers
- SKU:
- ARC-100-L-CH
Forza 100” (2.5M) Light build "L" - Yellow Checkers (Plesae Note: This is the Yellow Checkers version)
Mid-sized slope allrounder. Like all Aeroic models this one is good looking, fast and very aerobatic. Super rigid wings with OLP (Optimised lift planform) and special high-response aerofoil sections with the HSWS give it a huge flight envelope. Elevator and rudder servos are easily mounted in the fin and accessed via a convenient moulded-in hatch. With its transportability and sparkling performance, the Forza has become many slope flyers’ weapon of choice.
The Forza 100 is the next generation high performance 2.5 metre model from successful Aeroic designer, Dr. James Hammond. With a new and highly experienced manufacturer, and continuing technical development of previous designs which have gained him a worldwide following, Dr. James Hammond is very pleased to announce Aeroic’s latest entry into the high-end sports sailplane market; the Stormbird Forza 100”
James specifically designed the now very popular Forza as a more modern, and higher performing replacement for the ever-popular Typhoon – arguably the best selling all–moulded 2M ever, that he designed over a decade ago. Now it has been stretched and optimized into the higher aspect ratio Forza. The proof of the Pudding – chuck it and see. From the very first flight the Forza has surprised us.
Armed and dangerous with its massive carbon joiner and a completely new and higher aspect ratio wing planform, newly smoothed aerofoils, and the game-changing sine wave spar, the new “Doc J” weapon is extremely fast - scary fast some have said - and like all Aeroic thoroughbreds its highly aerobatic but lands like a Gentle Lady. Its faster than its smaller brother in acceleration and top speed, slower in landing mode, and with its lower wing loading can fly in lighter winds than the original model.
