World champion pilot Daniel Aeberli joins model aircraft manufacturer FMS in creating the world's first scale performance foam glider, the ASW-17. True to the FMS spirit, no detail was overlooked in the design of the ASW-17. The FMS engineers made four expensive tooling adjustments just to micro-adjust the airfoil for perfect efficiency.

The wing, vertical, and horizontal stabilizers are designed with a snap-together structure. With a simple snap, the surfaces attach to the fuselage with pinpoint precision—no screws or glue necessary! Build the aircraft in as little as three minutes!

Like the 3000mm Fox, the ASW-17 has a pre-installed carbon fiber spar that ensures wing rigidity in high-G maneuvers. To achieve the same dihedral as the real aircraft, the ASW-17 was designed with a specialized CNC aluminum spar joiner, allowing the aircraft to maintain its wing geometry during demanding flight routines.

Performance-wise, a high-quality Hobbywing 40A ESC paired with a Predator 3541-750KV motor provides ample power with a 4S pack to perform most aerobatic maneuvers. If efficiency, stability, and aerobatic capabilities are what you seek in a glider, look no further than the FMS 2500mm ASW-17!.
