    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    *Our development goals for the Alula-TREK were very aggressive as we strive to extract the highest quality and level of performance from our materials. We have pushed the limits of manufacturing and material tolerances in an effort to create the most advanced Alula yet. As a result, we have a glider with a slightly broader weight range than what is printed on the manual and kit box (current weight specifications are shown below). This is the nature of product development and we do our best to project some of the finer details, but sometimes the target is a moving one. While the specifications have changed slightly for this preliminary production run, we are happy to share the quality and in-air performance of the Alula-TREK has not diminished 1%.

    Minimum radio requirements: 2 channel elevon mixing with dual rates and/or ATV (Adjustable Throw Volume) with micro RX and servos.

    *Kit requires assembly. Kit Includes complete hardware package for basic lightweight assembly.

    (Radio gear, tools and adhesives not included)
