✈️ Winter Break Building Course (Feb 22–24, 2027)

Come build your own Aero-naut Lilienthal 40 RC glider during the winter break! In this course, you'll dive into the secrets of model aircraft construction under expert guidance. The model can be built either as a free-flight or radio-controlled (RC) version — and the free-flight model can be upgraded to RC later on.

Building develops fine motor skills, focus, patience, and creative thinking. It's a fantastic shared experience for a parent and child!

🏆 Course Follow-Up: Summer Model Aircraft Competitions! This summer, three Cup-style model aircraft competitions will be held at the Kullo flying field specifically for this model! The competitions are beginner-friendly, giving you a chance to test your newly built plane in a fun, friendly contest environment. Watch video
