The Italian R1 Gheppio (or Kestrel) was a one-off single-seat sailplane. Vic Steel has rescaled the design to 40% (4 metres span) with a weight of only 22 lb (10.2 kg) for 5-function R/C, drawn in CAD on four 2.5m (huge) plan sheets. A moulded clear canopy is also available. The Gheppio is a stable slope or aerotow scale sailplane in the right conditions. Plan MW3594 Canopy CA3594CY
