Oldgliders.com have a large collection of these (Polish) gliders for R/C flying, in 1/4 scale and larger. The scale and paper weight makes this size gliders fly like bricks. I think you would have to enlarge them to about 1/12 scale to get enough wing area to make them glide well. But airline models fly pretty well. Most of them have better weight to size ratios. Just remember to reinforce the nose section (I soak the nose with super glue.)
Thanks Erik for pointing out Ostoja's posts. Great workmanship, hope he's doing well, too. While I think about it, hope DeckApe is well, too. He hasn't posted in awhile.
I should highlight the Sailplanes Available? thread started by Jan Kytop. Lots of links to sailplane models.
