Ok another question for @Steviegeek and @notveryprettyboy . How do you control servos from a flight controller? 
Its in bf or inav. Esc takes pwm, same as servos. So you put the signal wire on the fc where the esc went. The power for the servo should be a bec. But mine is direct on 2s.
Also, a tbs nano can be mapped to have 4 pwm outputs, so a nano rx can drive 2 esc and 2 servo no problems. No need for an fc

Coolā¦ looks like Iām sorted for those then. 
I have a couple of the larger ones in the garage - 860mm wingspan - Lidl have them in a couple of times a year for about a fiver. I put a reciever and servos in one a couple of years back in an attempt to make it a motorless glider/slope soarer, but I donāt really have suitable locations round here for that.
Iāve got two more still in the box - I should really come up with a plan, although Iāve been trying to think of something a little more creative than just another FPV/LOS plane

Iāve heard of these, they seem to be a bit of a legend on some forums.
I think Pawel, he of INAV fame, loves them.
Iām sure Karl @notveryprettyboy would love to get his hands on one, do you know what time of the year LIDL have them in?
I donāt know, but there is a Lidl Glider FB group where all the nerds hang out and seem to know when theyāre coming around.
Looks like maybe April/May time?
Hello folks in far flung lands (we are a global group afterall).
This is a message for more recent members (and especially Kamal) who might be wondering how to obtain the Lidl glider. Apologies to the main membership who are already familiar with the product.
Lidl is the name of a German discount supermarket store which operates in many European and other main world areas such as the States and Australia, to name but two.
Lidl features limited offer āspecial buysā which cover many and varied items. One of these is the Lidl childrenās glider. This and other items only feature in store at specific times of the year and limited by stock in store, and this varies by country. For 2021, the gliders have been and gone. For 2022, I donāt expect to see them in the northern hemisphere until spring, around April/May time.
So, in the meantime for similar gliders you may need to source them from the likes of Bangood.
If you search this group, you will find reference to gliders that others have sourced. Kamal, hope that helps and explains the situation.
Also, lots of inspiration for weird and wonderfule builds and conversion in that group 
They are available in blue and yellow. I got the yellow one as I find this colour more easy to see. They are in two sizes, I got the larger one cost just under Ā£6 on eBay
4 foam gliders complete with LEDs arrived this morning.

I know @Steviegeek is doing the rear flap a different way, but this is how Iāve done it. It hasnāt been fully tested, but it goes up and down, left and right in the garden.
I may scale the throttle in my tx as its way overpowered.

Itāll be interesting to see how everyoneās will turn out and flyās the best. I have robbed a spare one from my missesās work in case I need to rebuild.
