Give a good strength of flying ### ⭐ 1.0 out of 5 stars Hoping for Something Better *by C***G on Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2010* The plane was delivered in a large cardboard box with no signs of damage. So I was a bit surprised to find that the box inside that actually holds the plane kit looked as though it had been stepped on with a large boot. Glad it was not intended as a gift, because it looked pretty bad. But inside, the plane did not appear to be damaged. I hoped to buy a plane that was a few steps up from the old balsa wood gliders. In some ways, the design exceeded my expectations, in others, it clearly fell short. The horizontal stabilizer is solidly attached to the "fuselage". Combine this with the wing struts under the main wing and you have a fairly sturdy little airplane. But the vertical stabilizer (rudder) is held on by a tiny little piece of tape and can be expected to fall off repeatedly on the ground and in flight. Once assembled, the plane was clearly "out of whack" and required some serious manipulation to get the wings and stablizer level. It's hard because you feel as though you are on the verge of snapping it half. You have to get pretty serious with it to make any difference. The instructions stated that you must wind the propeller, if memory serves, about 180 times for the first flight. Apparently, the plane won't fly correctly if you don't fully wind it up. I wound it about 75 times and the rubber band snapped. The plane comes with a replacement rubber band that is different in size from the original, but I'm not entirely sure how to install it and I may not bother. Glad I didn't spend too much on this. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Five Stars *by L***D on Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2015* Fun, and easy to put together. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/26163485-albatross-sailplane-rubber-band-powered-plane](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/26163485-albatross-sailplane-rubber-band-powered-plane) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-17*
