The Predator is a highly sophisticated slope-racer, specially designed for F3F. It is designed by Gudmund Malones. It has been developed over a period of 18 months to get the best performance possible, and the goal was to offer a top class glider, and yet be affordable.

Materials all over are the best available as the strength and finish.

Wings and fuselage are painted in high gloss moulds, and have a long lasting hard finish. Wings have a 40 mm spar made of Herex, and the wings are made with GFK, single carbon and double carbon version.

Flight characteristics are forgiven, but it has a tremendous speed range.

It picks up speed very fast, and has a lot of energy retention.

This is important in competitions, but also gives you the very best performance while you just want to relax with it, or perhaps just go bananas.

Fully aerobatic of course, but the essence of the Predator is the speed.

The prototypes have been flown with 1.6 kilos of ballast in severe conditions. Those are also tested in Dynamic Soaring.

But it’s also a floater in calm winds and keeps the forgiving handling in all conditions. There are absolutely no hidden secrets with it, it will most likely be your all time favourite.

Airfoil: GM08 /6.8.

Tail plane: TP29.

Ballast: 1600grams.

Servos: 6

About our factory:

Our company is a professional company focusing on designing and manufacturing full composite RC models. Our head office is located in Taian, China and our company was founded in 2006 by Mr. Wenjun Gu - an expert in composite manufacturing process.

In our early days, we received fantastic help and support from James Hammond. With his excellent designs and assistance, we have established a product line of which we are very proud. We try to bring in as many skilled contributors as possible to our projects and have a history of involving top pilots from all over the world to help us by giving feedback on our products, ensuring that we keep in touch with you, our customers, and know what you want from our models.

 ..

We have invested heavily over the last few years in our capabilities as a manufacturer. With full CAD facilities, we are now able to turn designs into CAD files which we can send to our milling machines, and consequently we are able to control the entire manufacturing processes from CAD, positive milling and mould making to model manufacture under one roof. We believe that this is how we can best achieve high quality products.

We have recently taken a decision to involve more designers with Sail Aerotech in order to diversify our product line and increase the models that we offer to our valued customers. We welcome inquiries from clients who have designs that they wish to turn into full production models and who have many different ways that we can work together to achieve.

 ..

However, we also want to take this opportunity to thank James Hammond very much for his involvement in us to date. It has been a pleasure to work with him and the performance of the models that we manufacture as a result of our association with him is a testament to his skills as a designer. Thank you, James and wish you the best of luck in the future!!!
