Schempp-Hirth Arcus
The Schempp-Hirth Arcus is a flapped Two Seater Class glider in production by Schempp-Hirth.  It first flew 7 April 2009.  It is offered in addition to the Duo Discus which is an unflapped 20 metre two-seater, whose fuselage it shares. The wings have flaperons integrated along the whole span.

It is available as a pure glider, a turbo using the Solo 2350-engine, and as a self-launching glider using the Solo 2625-02i. An electric power unit based on Antares 20E equipment was produced until end 2016 when cooperation with Lange stopped.
