Pino 3 Meter Light Electric Glider by PCMThe Pino 3 retains the qualities of the of the Pino 2. 5 and takes them to a new level of performance. It is a great all rounder combining the characteristics of a slope glider and a thermal duration ship but with electric power. The Pino 3 Light is PCM's lightweight high performer.

The Pino 3 retains the qualities of the of the Pino 2.5 and takes them to a new level of performance. It is a great all-rounder combining the characteristics of a slope glider and a thermal duration ship but with electric power.

The Pino 3 Light is PCM's lightweight high performer. The Pino's low weight and thin airfoils gift this ship with excellent thermal performance, even in very weak conditions. Conversely, the generous ballast compartments allow flying in strong winds too.

The aerodynamic design includes 5 different airfoils. So there is an optimum airfoil for every section of the wing. The creation of the airfoils was done with X-Foil, the wing aerodynamics with XFLR5.

Here's a link to the excellent build manual. The manual contains a great deal of information about the Pino 3. It's worth a look if you are seriously interested in this plane.

Here is a look at the medium weight Pino 3 tearing it up on the slope:

The construction of the airframe is as follows. Wings, hollow molded with Airex foam skins laminated with 75g Carboline on the outer surfaces. V-Tails, Rohacell foam cores with 75g Carboline skins. Fuselage, Multi layer carbon fabrics except for the forward portion of the fuse which is black fiberglass for 2.4gHz transparency; molded under pressure for an excellent epoxy / resin ratio.

The wing is held in place using nylon screws that are meant to snap on hard landings. The electrical connections from the fuse to the wing are through spring contacts (included) which prevents wiring harness damage if the wing was to break free on a hard landing.

All control surfaces are pre-cut and have kevlar live hinges. All servo pockets and linkage tunnels are precut. Gap seal tape and carbon servo covers are included in the kit. See the instruction manual for a thorough understanding of what is included with this kit. 

  • Wing Span: 3000mm
  • Wing Area: 57.7dm2
  • Aspect Ratio: 16.6:1
  • AUW: 1730-2610g
  • Wing Loading: 31.6-47.5g / dm2

Comes with nice wing bags too.

Bottle Opener
I've purchased this item multiple times. They're definitely laying around house and garage always willing to open a cold Corona. I assume they would make a great gift or stocking stuffer for a good price point.

Good Bottle Opener
I never thought I would be buying a bottle opener. All the ones I get are free and tend to last one or two barbecues before they break or fall apart. I figured I'd buy one and see how long it lasts and this one is a keeper. Perfect for the open bar I have and fits the theme of my decorations.
