Glasflügel Upgrades

We are very proud to offer the updated Winglets NG.

These new winglets have use the latest technology and included extensive research and testing, and as always, we are proud to offer the high Streifeneder quality.
They are not only eye catching, but also improve the sailplane’s flight characteristics in the following ways:

• • The minimum speed is lower
  • The directional control is better
  • The stall behaviour in straight flight and in a banked turn is more docile
  • The aileron response is improved even during the take-off and landing
  • Improved aerodynamics and performance

The winglets are constructed from carbon fibre reinforced plastic and only slightly heavier than the original wing tips, have a robust connection to the wing. They are rigged in seconds and secured in place by a spring loaded pin. There are no loose parts. The original wing tips may still be used. You can read a review about the new Winglets NG here.

We are very proud to offer Winglets for the Mosquito.

As the Mosquito is a contender in the new Club Class, we have adapted the winglets of the Glasflügel 304, and as always, we are proud to offer the high Streifeneder quality.
They are not only eye catching, but also improve the sailplane’s flight characteristics in the following ways:

• • The minimum speed is lower
  • The directional control is better
  • The stall behaviour in straight flight and in a banked turn is more docile
  • The aileron response is improved even during the take-off and landing
  • Improved aerodynamics and performance

The winglets are constructed from carbon fibre reinforced plastic and only slightly heavier than the original wing tips, have a robust connection to the wing. They are rigged in seconds and secured in place by a spring loaded pin. There are no loose parts. There is an option to modify the original tip for use, but we have found that once winglets are installed, they never come off. For this reason, the standard kit assumes the original tips will not be used.
We have the first flight with winglets and you can read a review here.

Winglet Retrofit Kit for the Mosquito Includes:

• • TN303-27 and additional flight manual page
  • 1 pair of winglets (unfinished)
  • 1 pair of winglet connecting ribs (CFRP)
  • 1 pair of wing tip skids

Excludes costs for modification and installation. & As the ailerons on the Mosquito may need to be fitted with additional mass compensation to ensure flutter-free operation, we have decided to have the installation carried out only by us and companies authorised by us. If we carry out the installation, we offer you various options, please contact us for further information.
Form One is required and the paperwork is included in the price.

After many requests, we are proud to share the redesigned backrest for the Libelle with an integrated headrest.  Either the Dragonfly or upholstery to match other upholstery is available, please specify your choice when ordering.
The integrated backrest with headrest can be folded forward during rigging, saving time and less handling. The headrest is narrow so the view to the rear is clearer and does not affect the position of your shoulders. It is also significantly stiffer, which is very comfortable for your back when flying. The “Sky Knapsack” can still be used.
Installation only takes a short time and does not require professional installation. Apart from tools, everything is included in the installation kit with instructions.

The fibreglass finish has the retro fleck of the original glider and the custom dragonfly removable headrest cover is included. See TouTube demonstration here

Please let us know the Type , serial number and the used transponder (Connector) with your order.

The kit does not include the transponder.
