LAK's facebook page details a flight test of the new LAK 17C - yet

gives
scant few details about the new model. Anybody know how it

differs
from the B are they using the variable geometry miniflaps they

have
ben testing on a B model?

The UK Dealer told me it is a self launching version of the 17b

FES. Some mods made to facilitate self launch, taller U/C for prop
clearance and larger battery. The wing incidence at the root is
increased to improve climb performance.
