Review on 33 Inch Wingspan Geospace GEOGLIDE Freedom Eagle Glider - Soar To New Heights! by Juan Mcallen

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Flies Great but Have a Glue Gun Handy

It's quite a beautiful sight watching the eagle soar, especially on a windy day. You need a large open space.Other people in the park enjoy watching it go. Problem is it comes apart rather quickly. I took it home and applied a glue gun to all the parts, and that has so far kept it together when flying. When not in use, it's hanging in the front window.

Pros
  • The included launcher will easily get your model up to 30ft or more depending on wind. Only one person is needed; after setup in a baseball infield sized grassy area just pull back the model bird, point into the wind at let it go. The model will gently be towed up like a kite then automatically let go of the line in free flight. Just grab the end of the line at the ribbon and do it again! You can experiment with the length of your pull back but it usually just takes 8-10 steps.
Cons
  • Too small for adults: With a wingspan of only 33 inches, the Glider may not be big enough to accommodate adults, limiting its target audience.
