The Zagi is a radio-controlled glider. They are flying wings constructed of expanded polypropylene (EPP) foam, covered in coloured vinyl sticky tape. Zagis are very popular for aerial combat since they are practically indestructible. This, and their easy construction, also makes them popular for beginners.

There are various versions of the Zagi available for different applications, such as slope soaring, thermal soaring and electric flying.

A zagi can fly off of a slope, with the wind, a catapult, or an electric motor.
