1986 Ventus bT 16.6: 15m tips (no winglets), 15m tips (winglets), 16.6m tips (no winglets). LXNAV S8 and FLARM, the data for both is multiplexed to the Samsung Tab A running XCSoar software. Upgraded to Beringer hydraulic disk brake. Flap position indicator at top of panel. Ground equipment includes wing stands, MM Wing Rigger, MM Wing Wheel, and a tail dolly with towbar. The Ventus bT is a sustainer motorglider. It is not capable of self launching. The factory does not have an upgrade to a self launch configuration for this aircraft. I fly from an airport at 7,000' MSL. I have several self-retrieves with the engine each season. I have not had an outlanding since purchasing this glider.
