FES Gliders are now supported in Condor 3

2024-10-28T14:57:10+00:00

FES and electric gliders are the future of soaring, and now we have added the first one, a Duo Discus FES sustainer to Condor 3.

Use of the motor is simple and can easily be used for a low save, although we would not encourage that. Flip the master switch, then turn the knob on the FES instrument and it starts up instantly. Away you go!
