The Pace VX
The Pace VX 2.5 metre sailplane is manufactured in Austria by Lesky composites who have a reputation for building the strongest airframes for extreme sports flying and dynamic soaring Prices start at £530
Model Description:
The PACE VX is the logical extension of Lesky'smodel line. It replaces the missing link between PACE DS and PACE F4, with a further push on the boundaries.
Key objectives were: - increased strength of the parts
- Lower elongation for higher Reynolds numbers.
- CNC machined molds
- Higher ballasting capabilities, ultra-sized joiners
- Use for fast slope soaring, angular aerobatics and DS
- Models in 3 different versions, special versions according to customer requirements up to a "unladen weight" up to about 4kg possible
To produce - In short, the fastest pace
The fuselage was adapted to the specified strength requirements, expanded sections on the trunk-tail transition. The fuselage tube merges into the profile of the vertical stabilizer on. A canopy at the top for easier installation of the components was a must, available in different colors and fabrics.
The Joiner is the beauty of the model, with a width of 35mm and a height of 11.6mm, the strength is given for the most extreme maneuvers. Wet meticulously handcrafted with individually inserted Carbonrovings for minimal fiber epoxy and perfect alignment. Different versions available with carbon tubes for ballast. Due to the increased root depth are now more than 4 rods per area half possible. Use find D10mm 250mm steel bars, which are available as accessories in stainless quality
