Flight Character & Design Philosophy
Vesna belongs to the RES (Rudder, Elevator, Spoiler) category, but rather than thermal competition flying, she truly shines on the slope. Designed in the spirit of classic vintage gliders, her graceful lines evoke the elegance of traditional models. There’s something uniquely beautiful about flying Vesna close by on a hillside—watching her glide effortlessly past, admiring the curves that make her so distinctive.
Why “Vesna”?
This glider model proudly bears the name Vesna, inspired by the Slavic goddess of spring and renewal. In ancient mythology, Vesna symbolizes youth, vitality, and the awakening of nature after winter’s slumber. Just as Vesna heralds the arrival of spring, this elegant radio-controlled sailplane is designed to open the flying season with grace and energy. Launching Vesna into the sky is a celebration of new beginnings—perfect for those first warm days when the air is crisp and the thermals begin to rise.
