⚠️ Gecko 60 DP for sale.

Introducing the brand new Gecko 60 DP glider, designed for high-speed dynamic soaring and slope soaring.

This exceptional glider is a result of a collaboration with Dirk Pflug of DP Airfoils, ensuring cutting-edge performance and innovative design. Made in the United Kingdom by myself.

This is the 2nd production model. Only a hand full of prototypes have been made and DS tested to 295 mph.

This model will have an all up weigh of approximately (correction) 1kg when fitted out as the bare airframe weight is 650g.

This Gecko is a light layup - carbon wing with a carbon shearweb balsa spar - hollow moulded construction. Only high quality materials have been used to make this model. The fuselage is 2.4 Ghz friendly, mainly glass with a carbon fin.

You will require winds speed of approximately 8mph + to comfortably fly this glider.

I wish this were mine, but it has to be sold.

Price £450 + postage.

My latest Gecko 60 DP 🦎😀👍

This is a light layup, the wing was released from the mould this afternoon and still requires some finishing details like cutting the control surfaces.

Note: the Gecko 60 DP is supplied in carbon only due to its high aspect ratio.

Layup options: -

Ultralight.
Light - this Gecko.
