Hi Luis, RES gliders are fun and can win most contests when properly flown. I won Visalia last year, RES, with a very modified Spirit 100. NES's glider is probably very good. I'm just not familiar with it.There are at least a few RES gliders that could win. Some of it is luck like the conditions when you are called to launch.I wouldn't try to tell you what is the best RES glider. Build one and practice a lot. Regards, Art
