Picares Longears F3J/F5J 2.5m

Kit contents were superb. The quality of laser cut parts and superb selection of balsa wood should make this model a pleasure to build. All instructions and plan are in German, although self explanatory, a translated booklet would be helpful, but Google would aid any translation issues. Excellent service from Hyperflight, fast and efficient. Highly Recommended!

I made so many mistakes with this build....( Including two left mid wings, thank goodnessfor acetate) Mostly because I was working late at night after work, and because I enjoyed building it so much. The sheeted leading edge requires alot more time and skill than the thread ribs on CF tube sort. It's an all balsa kit of high quality. Mine weights in at about 550g with a 850 battery & recommended motor/prop. Just need make a lid for it and I'm done. I made it without spoiler or ailerions. I maidened it on the weekend ,WOW.... turns beautifully and at this weight is a light wind machine....
The elevator was rather sloppy so firmed up the holes with CA, my not have been necessary though.
Highly recommended....

Amazing service, thank you Hyperflight.
The big box of balsa & big plans arrived in perfect condition in less than one week.....
Solid box full of balsa , so it will take me a bit too get my non german head around it and produce a sailplane .....
Nice kit

Good quality kit with good wood selection, CNC cutting and very clear and precise CAD drawings. I particularly liked the parts index sketches on the main plan which provide an indication of the shape of the various bits.
Yet to be built so I can't comment on that but so far it all points to a clean and accurate build.
The manual and 'Long Ear' supplement are well illustrated but are in German and even using Google Translate they took a long time to decipher. I had to use a technical German on-line translator for some of the wording as might be expected.
The item was out of stock when I ordered and I was offered notification of stock arrival. This was duly done after about a week and my delivery instructions were met without problems.
First class service from Hyperflight!

This is a top division kit and top division service from Hyperflight. As someone else commented a build sequence manual would be useful though the plans are pretty well self explanatory

Top quality kit, and great service from Neil. Kit was very well packed and survived the journey to New Zealand. Highly recommended.

I just opened the box and the quality of this German kit is amazing. Very happy with the purchase and with Hyperflight.

Great model but could do with a English build manual.
