Gliders are getting bigger and bigger, heavier and heavier, so the time has come to design and build a suitably large towed model. Topmodel comes with a new larger model of the already tried and tested and popular Bidule type - Bidule 170.

With a wingspan of almost 3.5m, the Bidule 170 is the most stable, precise and easy to handle towable model. Its power allows it to tow even the largest gliders without any problems. The flaps allow for easy landing and the landing gear is ready for a comfortable landing on the grass.

No revolution, but honest development! At this size, the design of some elements is closer to real aviation than to a model. As with other Bidule models, the structure is wooden, the engine cowling and landing gear are made of fiberglass. Carbon wing coupling, Oracover® covering material. The aircraft is capable of pulling up to 35kg.
