Veron "Impala" ~ laser-cut Rib Set

Note: This is not a complete kit. A plan is not included, and additional materials are required to complete the model.

The Impala is a balanced design capable of stable flights in all conditions. It has a flat undercambered section to give stable penetration and this coupled with a lifting section tailplane obviates 'ballooning up' in up or downwind situations. Also, balanced side areas to move diagonally along a soaring ridge without 'weather-cocking' into the wind and without the constant need for repeated corrective signals. Ample dihedral gives a high degree of inherent and self-corrective stability."
