The Glider Throw Quad V3 by GliderCG is a high-precision measuring system designed for model gliders with multiple control surfaces. This advanced dual system allows you to measure up to four moving parts simultaneously with a single device, making it ideal for complex setups requiring accurate readings of incidence angle, flap throws, differential, and dihedral angle.
Initially conceived for serious model glider enthusiasts, this compact and intelligent tool offers real-time feedback through a dedicated WiFi AP called “GliderThrow.” Simply place the sensors on the surfaces using the built-in magnetic peg and non-slip surface, connect your phone, and start measuring. Measurements can be viewed in degrees or millimetres and adjusted easily through the intuitive mobile interface, which is compatible with Android, iOS, tablets, or computers.
The system comes equipped with four precision-calibrated sensors, all engineered to deliver fast and reliable data on model airplane incidence angle and more. With a lightweight single unit weight and compact single device dimensions height, the Glider Throw Quad V3 is perfectly portable. Power is supplied by a long-lasting, rechargeable lithium battery, with charging supported via microUSB or USB-C cable.
Whether you're tuning your aircraft on the bench or out at the field, this small device gives you the accuracy and convenience to optimise throw settings on almost any glider.

Benefits of the Glider Throw Quad V3 for Control Surfaces
The Glider Throw Quad V3 offers a complete and efficient solution for measuring multiple control surfaces on modern model gliders. It is capable of measuring up to four moving surfaces simultaneously using a single compact device, making it ideal for aircraft with complex configurations. With extreme precision to a tenth of a degree, it allows pilots to fine-tune critical aspects such as incidence angle, differential, flap throws, and dihedral angle with complete confidence.
Wireless Connectivity with Instant Setup
This advanced system connects wirelessly to your smartphone, tablet, or computer through a dedicated WiFi AP called “GliderThrow,” eliminating the need for cables or manual syncing. Setup is almost instantaneous, thanks to the magnetic peg mounting system and non-slip surface, sensors are easily and securely positioned, allowing users to start measuring within seconds. The system supports both degrees and millimetre measurements, which can be switched directly from the connected device through a simple and intuitive interface.
Compact, Portable, and Easy to Use
Designed with portability and convenience in mind, the Glider Throw Quad V3 features a lightweight single-unit weight and compact dimensions, making it easy to transport and handle. It operates continuously on a long-lasting rechargeable lithium battery and recharges quickly via microUSB or USB-C cable. Fully compatible with Android and iOS, the system is assembled and carefully calibrated in Spain to ensure long-term accuracy and reliability.
Whether you're adjusting horizontal position, fine-tuning control surfaces, or perfecting throw settings, the Glider Throw Quad V3 delivers the level of accuracy and ease-of-use that glider pilots demand. It's a field-proven, professional-grade wing incidence tool built to optimise every aeroplane setup.
