Aresti takes first place in TOSS slope aerobatics contest!


Yes it surprised us too since the production Aresti is still in mould stage! Details can be found here in Steve Lange’s wonderful website dedicated to slope aerobatics  http://www.slopeaerobatics.com/2013/01/30/scratchbuilt-aresti-takes-1st-place-in-toss-slope-aerobatics-contest

Hans Van Kamp of South Africa scratch built the Aresti from James Hammond’s drawings at 2.65m span and with Louis Genade at the sticks won the 5th Annual Two Oceans Slope Soarers aerobatic contest. Well done guys, you’ve done us proud! This is really encouraging for the new Aresti design with this little international collaboration.

I better get back to the epoxy fumes and get our Aresti prototypes made!
