Deviant: successor to the popular GO Mini 1-meter DLG. 

Have you always wanted a model that you can just get in the air and start flying whenever you get the urge? You need a Deviant in your life :)

The Deviant is a successor to the GO Mini in many ways. It takes all that we have learned from the GO Mini and takes it a step further. Built on the proof that a large low-AR wing helps boost both the performance and handling of a 1-meter model, the Deviant continues with the low-AR design with optimizations to launch and penetration. Even in higher winds where other 1 meter models will struggle, the Deviant will stay on step, and when needed, it will take ballast like nothing else.

The construction has also been upgraded to the level of our BAMF models. Made in HAAS machined aluminum moulds, their fit and finish are second to none. And with the experience of our builders in Ukraine, you can expect the quality to be the best on the market.

While the models have retained a full-carbon structure, the foam core has been swapped from the GO Mini's XPS core to Rohacell for better stiffness, ease of build and repairs, and resistance to hanger rash.

The nosecone design makes it very easy to handle the model on the field, and when you damage the nosecone, you can swap it out for a new nosecone helping keep the model looking fresh.

Images shown are a representation of the model only and may differ slightly due to the handmade nature of the model.

      Deviant RR Monarch

      Been considering a smaller span DLG for quite some time, from all the options out there, decided on the Deviant. Went with the RR version with the standard layup to speed up the process from unboxing to thermals. The quality, fit and finish of this RR version is outstanding. Extremely easy to program with my DLG template since the aileron offsetting was already done at the factory. The AUW is 149 grams with a 350mah 1S lipo including a bit of tungsten putty for ballast. Shout-out to the great service and communication with the Armsoar team during the ordering process.

      Very Happy Newbie DLGer

      I have been considering trying out this hobby for years and finally took the plunge this summer. I am blown away by the precision craftsmanship and science of the Deviant. I am consistently floored by how long it floats, even in dead air conditions. As a novice, I have already had a few rough landings, but so far the biggest damage was a cracked nose cone. I am thrilled with this plane and the radio you all set me up with. This is my first DLG, but most certainly not my last! Thank you for providing such an amazing product and the tutorials to learn how to use it.

      Outstanding looking DLG and outstanding service.

      Though I haven't yet had the time (or weather) to get my new receiver-ready Deviant flying yet, I'll say the plane looks to be beautifully made. Really impressive build techniques and quality. I'm a noob to DLG but not RC planes. Kirill was so patient and helpful! And his product knowledge and assembly skills are clearly top notch as well. I've spent an inordinate amount of time examining this Deviant and it appears perfect to me. Even the packaging was practically a work of art! Seriously.

      Thank you!
