The K8 from Schleicher is a single-seater from the 50s, which due to its robust construction is mainly used as a training aircraft for beginners. This faithful replica from Phoenix - with a wingspan of an impressive 4.50m - is manufactured using the latest laser-cut technologies as a light and high-strength wood construction, which inspires with an enormous level of detail.

Enormously high degree of prefabrication

The design impresses with an enormously high degree of prefabrication, which means that the construction effort is almost reduced to the installation of drive and electronics. The model is prepared for spoilers and is also completely and faithfully covered with iron-on foil.

Numerous scale details
The KA8B from Phoenix Model has numerous scale details ex works. Many beautiful detailed solutions make the model look like the original. A special highlight is the detailed cockpit and the finished painted pilot figure. But the model is not only confusingly similar to its prototype on the ground - the KA8B also has an impressively true-to-life flight image in the air.

Designed for the electric drive
The 4.50m model is designed for the electric drive, which efficiently pulls the model into the thermals.
