SCIROCCO L 4.0m – High-Performance F5J Electric Glider
Precision, performance and pure flying pleasure – hand-picked by Aerobertics.
The new SCIROCCO L takes an already successful design to the next level. Combining modern GRP/CFRP composite construction with dynamic flight characteristics and excellent handling, this 4.0-metre high-performance F5J electric glider is built for pilots who demand versatility, precision and performance.
Whether you're searching for the lightest thermals, cruising in stronger winds or enjoying fast, tight aerobatic manoeuvres, the SCIROCCO L adapts effortlessly to your flying style. Its well-balanced flight characteristics and predictable handling inspire confidence, while its impressive agility reveal a more dynamic side when you want to push the limits.
Despite its generous wingspan, the SCIROCCO L maintains a remarkably low basic flying speed. Combined with its powerful electric drive, this makes hand launching straightforward and safe, even for solo pilots. And although designed primarily as an electric thermal glider, its capabilities extend well beyond the F5J circuit, with more and more pilots discovering its excellent potential for slope soaring.
Modern composite construction, refined design
Built using a sophisticated GRP/CFRP moulded-shell construction, the SCIROCCO L offers an excellent balance of structural strength, aerodynamic efficiency and refined finish. Its elegant contours provide excellent in-flight orientation, making it easier to judge the model's attitude, even at a distance.
The three-piece wing features robust CFRP square joiners for a secure, precise connection between the centre section and outer panels. Continuous ailerons and flaps eliminate the traditional bridge between control surfaces, contributing to a cleaner wing layout and more integrated control-surface design.
Further refinements include moulded flap linkage covers, provision for a Multilock wing-retention system and dedicated moulded recesses for the six-pin connectors, with interchangeable black connector frames for a neat, professional installation.
ARF or PNP+ – choose your preferred setup
The SCIROCCO L is available in two versions to suit different building preferences.
- ARF: Ideal for pilots who want the freedom to select their own motor, ESC, servos and RC equipment.
- PNP+: Supplied largely pre-assembled, with the motor, speed controller, servos and wiring already installed. Spend less time building and more time enjoying the flying field.
At Aerobertics, we appreciate models that combine thoughtful engineering with genuine versatility. The SCIROCCO L is a great example: an elegant thermal performer when conditions are light, a confident all-rounder when the wind picks up, and a surprisingly agile machine when it's time to have some fun. Whether your priority is competitive F5J flying or simply enjoying every flight, this glider has plenty to offer.
