Robbe SCIROCCO S 3.75M ARF – High-Performance Electric Sailplane with 4 Flaps
The Robbe SCIROCCO S 3.75M ARF is a large-scale electric sailplane designed for advanced RC pilots seeking extended, silent flight sessions. Built with a combination of carbon fibre and fibreglass, it delivers a rigid airframe that translates every thermal into sustained altitude.
4-flap configuration provides precise lift control and tight thermalling capability
Electric brushless motor setup ensures quiet, efficient propulsion for field flying
ARF (Almost Ready to Fly) format minimises build time while retaining the satisfaction of final assembly
2.22 kg all-up weight balances stability in wind with manageable hand-launch effort
What sets the SCIROCCO S apart
The full-GFK/CFK construction gives the Scirocco S a notably crisp finish and consistent surface quality straight out of the box. The 3.75-metre wingspan places it firmly in the competition sailplane class, yet the ARF approach keeps the barrier to entry practical for pilots who want to fly rather than build from scratch.
Ideal for
Experienced RC pilots who regularly visit slope sites or inland thermalling locations and value a sailplane that rewards precise control inputs. The 4-flap system and electric power make it a serious contender for local and regional soaring competitions.
Anwendung von Robbe SCIROCCO S 3.75M ARF
Install the 6 required servos, brushless motor, ESC, and receiver according to the included manual
Mount the battery and verify centre of gravity before the first flight
Launch by hand or with a bungee, then transition to thermal soaring once at altitude
Use the 4 flaps to tighten turns and maximise climb rate in rising air
Robbe is a German brand specialising in RC model aircraft, with a strong focus on sailplanes and electric-powered models. The SCIROCCO line is known for combining competition-grade performance with ARF convenience, targeting intermediate to advanced pilots who want ready-to-fly sailplanes without the complexity of a full kit build.
ARF stands for Almost Ready to Fly. The SCIROCCO S arrives with the airframe, control surfaces, and mounting hardware fully assembled; you need to install the 6 servos, brushless motor, ESC, battery, and RC equipment before the first flight.
The aircraft is designed for a single lithium-polymer battery (not included). A compatible LiPo charger with a suitable discharge plug is required; refer to the manual for the exact voltage and connector specification.
Wingspan is 3.75 metres. All-up weight is 2.22 kg, making it a large-scale sailplane that benefits from steady thermals and moderate wind conditions.
No. The SCIROCCO S is designed for intermediate to advanced RC pilots with experience in electric sailplane flying and thermal soaring techniques.
The airframe uses a combination of carbon fibre (CFK) and fibreglass (GFK), providing a stiff, lightweight structure with a smooth surface finish that resists warping.
