FOX ARF BLUE ELECTRO foil covered

A distinctive silhouette and the joy of soaring with the convenience of electric power – that’s the electric FOX from Hacker. This semi-scale model of a well-known sailplane stands out with its characteristic lines and several attractive colour schemes. Full-colour printing across all major components completes its unique appearance, both on the ground and during flybys over the flying field.

The FOX belongs to the SKG series (Simple Known Gliders), which brings popular full-size sailplanes to life as practical RC models. Its lightweight, strong and flexible expanded polypropylene (EPP) construction contributes to excellent flight characteristics while helping the model withstand minor crashes.

Electric power takes you to altitude without a tow plane or a suitable slope. Once you have climbed, simply switch off the motor and enjoy relaxed soaring or searching for thermals. With the motor switched off, the folding propeller folds back alongside the fuselage to reduce drag. Whenever you need to regain altitude, motor power is at your fingertips.

The electric FOX combines the charm of its full-size counterpart with the durability of an EPP model and greater independence when flying. Enjoy peaceful soaring and repeated climbs during a single flight.
