The QB-1800 is an easy to fly sailplane model which is controlled by elevator and rudder. It was my first radio controlled model. It was supplied as a classic quick built kit with many blanked parts and battens.
Later I built a motor pylon for a Speed 400 electric motor to allow operation on the meadow in front of our house. Now I can do slope soaring and thermal soaring in the plain. The QB can also by used for high start.
Because I sold the QB-1800 I don't know its destiny. I hope it can still spend many hours in the air which I don't doubt.
