Cox Models Dust Devil ARF Glider Review
By Andrew Willetts
Andew Willets explores this great looking, exciting new release by Cox Models into the r/c glider arena. Andrew finds, "The Cox Dust Devil is positioned as an electric sailplane designed to meet the needs of a wide range of electric flyers. It's flight performance, ease of assembly, durability and price ($130 at time of writing) make it very attractive to both the beginner and more experienced pilot. As electric sailplane competition attracts more traditional "sport" pilots, this model is well positioned to allow those pilots a first taste of this type of flying. That said, the model is also capable of performing well enough to allow the experienced pilot to 'take home some hardware'! With a low end brushed power system, this model would fly well, but with a powerful brushless motor, the Dust Devil will quickly reach altitude sufficient for extended thermal flights. "
