FMS is proud to announce the brand-new 2500mm ASW-17!
World champion pilot Daniel Aeberli joins model aircraft manufacturer FMS in creating the world's first scale performance foam glider- the ASW-17. True to the FMS spirit, no detail was overlooked in the design of the ASW-17. The FMS engineers made 4 expensive tooling adjustments just to micro-adjust the airfoil for perfect efficiency.
The wing, vertical and horizontal stabilizers are designed with a snap-together structure. With a simple snap, the surfaces attach to the fuselage with pinpoint precision- no screws or glue necessary! Build the aircraft in as little as 3 minutes!
Like the 3000mm Fox, the ASW-17 has a pre-installed carbon fiber spar that ensures wing rigidity in high-G maneuvers.
To achieve the same dihedral as the real aircraft, the ASW-17 was designed with a specialized CNC aluminum spar joiner- allowing the aircraft to maintain its wing geometry during demanding flight routines.
Performance-wise, a high-quality Hobbywing 40A ESC paired with a Predator 3541-750KV motor provides ample power with a 4S pack to perform most aerobatic maneuvers.
If efficiency, stability and aerobatic capabilities are what you seek in a glider, look no further than the FMS 2500mm ASW-17!

Customer Reviews
Easy set up and I love how the wings are so easy to get on and off. I haven’t had as much luck thermal soaring with this as I have had with slope soaring. The ASW-17 is the perfect weight for slope soaring, I was weighing it in around 11 pounds with the battery. The motors power is enough to take this thing vertical for 5-6 seconds before having to level off. Very graceful in the sky as far as gliding is considered. The thing doesn’t want to come down!
Still no hat 7 GMA planes later and still no hat?
Nice service
I wanted a aerobatic glider and this one didn't disappoint. I have it set up 'full house' and mix in the flaps when in aerobatic mode to help the roll rate. In thermal mode I can add a little camber and she really floats and can ride the thermals. For landing I highly recommend crow mixing if you don't have a huge field. She floats forever in ground effect. You should also add some color to the bottom to help orientation.
I wanted a good size power glider and decided on this one, so quick and easy to put together at the field, and flies very nice, has power enough to do loops and rolls, but is very graceful in the air just gliding around, I have had alot of compliments on it at the field. The size is very nice and so easy to see at great heights. The only thing I would ask FMS is to put some color on the bottom sides of the wings because that is what your tracking when it is way up in the air. I took some self adhesive vinyl and put some Stripes on the bottoms of the wings and it makes a big difference. Great glider FMS
