Meet the Micro Stingray, (small frame, big sting)—a pocket-size powerhouse that punches far above its weight. With an 11-inch wingspan and an astonishingly light 22-gram frame, it sets a new benchmark as the fastest, smallest, most stable RC airplane ever designed. This high-performance flying wing features a specially engineered airfoil that harnesses smooth laminar flow for razor-sharp maneuverability and rock-solid control. Driven by a tiny brushless motor and powered by a 1S LiPo battery, Micro Stingray delivers up to 5 minutes of thrilling flight in a form that fits in your pocket. ETA Spring of 2026

Radio Control Gliders Airplanes Micro Size & Ultralight Fun
 The TinyTail RC is an ultralight, red-tailed hawk-inspired RC glider. With a wingspan of 24″ and a flying weight of 45 grams, it boasts specially designed wings and wingtips that can adjust slightly to the air current, maximizing lift and offsetting the effects of gravity. True to its name, the TinyTail features a compact and aerodynamic tail, minimizing drag to achieve an optimal glide ratio. For more information click here |

Discus Launch RC Gliders ( DLG )
Micro Beetle The Micro Beetle is a super slow micro size radio controlled model airplane. This super small, super adorable micro beetle has been designed for ultimate slow flying characteristics. With short stubby wings and fuselage, this little beetle is equipped with a 10″ inch wing span and a tender flying wight of 20 grams, large wing area resulting in low wing loading contributes to maximum air time allowing slow graceful flights.

Every single human being has a level deep inside their mind that will bring total calmness. Meditation gives you that space between you and your body, between you and your mind. Flying RC Gliders has been proven to bring forth tangible benefits, in particular a more restful and focused mind. I have found myself able to concentrate deeply on the task at hand, to better adjust the volume on distracting background noise of ever growing stressful lifestyle we all encounter day by day.If you are new to this wonderful RC hobby, here you can find some helpful information on building a hand launch glider or DLG. Find out what the best DLG glider is for beginners.
With RC gliders, the fun factor starts with the knowledge to utilize environmental forces of mother nature such as wind, thermals, trees, altitude, the heat and the cold. Being mindful of your surrounding, taking in a deep breath of fresh air and dancing with nature. The art of gliding might take years of practice for some to fine tune, but the experience and journey is quite meditative and breathtaking.RC Thermal Soaring – Thermal lift is when warm air rises from the earths surface due to the suns warmth. Similar to hot air balloons as hot air is less dense than cool air, the heated air causes the balloon to rise. Buoyancy is an upward force that the air exerts helping in the lift factor. As long as warm air is constant, your rc glider will be able to sustain continuous lift.RC Slope Soaring – Slope Soaring or Ridge Lift is when wind hits the face of a cliff side or the side of a hilltop. When wind hits a slope surface, the direction of the wind is forced upward generating lift.Google Reviews
I let my 12 year old nephew to choose any bird he wants. He choose the Micro Jet, and I don’t blame him; such a deadly bird. Im good with technology, but Im not a technical guy, and Im not good with my hands. My brother in law, thankfully is more technical and the three of us got together and slowly slowly he built it. The video instructions are on target. Also cool this company is in US and not Ghina. We got a super cheap controller as I did not want to invest in something then have my nephew not be into it. No need to go all out, for me at least. So the three of us went to a local park, and embarked on a journey, in which we have no idea wtf were doing, but went for it. We got some spare batteries as well. It was a fun afternoon, and out of me, and my brother in law and nephew; My little nephew magically kept this amazing bird up in the air for almost 2 minutes. Fun hobby. Thanks MB.
There is so much thought and love put into everything he does and it shows. From the packaging to the components, this kit is top notch and totally worth it. I built this in a couple of nights following the very detailed instructions. I had a question and he answered it quickly via email which shows he cares about his product. I truly enjoyed building it, so much so that I purchased 3 other kits from him. Buy anything he sells, you won’t regret it.
The kits are fun to build and helped to introduce the hobby to my daughters as their first build’s. They fly exceptionally well and have ridiculous flight times. Could not recommend more!
I finally had the chance to build and fly my Tiny Tail. The first launch was a disaster—I forgot to set the launch mode, and it looped right back, hitting me square in the buttox! Luckily, no damage was done. On the second launch, I made sure to activate the launch mode, and it was perfect. The flight was smooth, and I managed to soar around my local baseball field for a solid 40 minutes. I’m definitely ordering another one!
Love the design any idea of when you might stock it. Or if too difficult any idea if you might make plans for older designs available?

I live in Australia shipping did take 2 weeks but arrived in excellent condition, i am now building my feather and truly enjoy the step by step build technique used, thanks much from down under can not wait to get skybound
My nephew is only 14 and I am 42 and have no flight experience but have some knowledge. I bought a Feather DLG Glider from MicroBirds and my nephew got a nice spektrum controller with ton of range and good battery life. I received my feather dlg rc glider in 2 days after order. The package came so nicely done and everything was in tact. I along with his dad began the building process and it was a success thanks to the step by step videos tutorial. We went to the park and it was a windy day but humid and hot as well. He was so excited to fly this new bird and boy did he fly it. He gain much altitude and was able to keep the bird up in the air for about two and half minutes. I was shocked he is only 14 and his experience is not that much. We we all happy that day ate some sandwiches and called it a day. Thank you MicroBirds for your exceptional service and shipping and quality of the kit. You have my business for life. Thank you
thank you Lee for such an amazing light weight glider, waiting anxiously for summer to slope with my firefly, cheers from Main JimBee
