Graupner 'Dandy' ~ Laser-cut Rib Set 

Dandy is a towline sailplane model that is easy and quick to build with a two-piece wing arrangement. Its flight characteristics are perfectly uncritical and the model is designed to accommodate R/C equipment of up to 14 oz weight. A pylon engine mount is an option which quickly converts the Dandy into a powered glider. Additional building instructions are available (email) by request.
