Guillow GUI60 Strato Streak Rubber Band Powered Glider Kit

The Guillow® GUI60 Strato Streak is a rubber band powered balsa wood glider kit from one of the most iconic names in balsa airplane modeling. Building on the classic Guillow free-flight tradition, the Strato Streak adds a rubber band motor to the proven balsa glider formula — winding the rubber band stores energy that drives a propeller for powered climb before transitioning to a smooth, stable glide. The rubber band motor extends flight time and altitude compared to a hand-launch glider, making the Strato Streak a step up in performance and building complexity from the basic Sky Streak. Guillow has been producing balsa airplane kits since 1926, and the Strato Streak is a classic in their lineup — a satisfying build that rewards with genuine powered free-flight performance.
