A smaller glider was built with the same principles of construction as the "normal glider". The wings are reduced in size in order to withstand stronger wind. The glider was later refined into a small biplane. The original can be seen in the Technical Museum in Vienna. (Replica in exhibition in Le Mans / France, 2008)
