Quintus sailplane from Icare

[Hoot]

What are elastoflaps ? Can anyone offer feedback on the quality of the Quintus sold by Icare?
Thanks in advance !

Typically refers to live hinged.

Several Quintus models from several manufacturers which one?

I will call Icare on Monday to see who is the manufacturer. It is the 5.8 Quintus. The Icare site does not mention the manufacturer.
Thanks !

Icare is closed for a few days but their website says the following about the Quintus 5.8 meter: "this glider also comes from our renowned Czech manufacturer, who already has many years of experience in glider modeling."

czech mfg models are pretty nice in my opinion. they have always made nice glass work and live hinges are what you want in one that size.
