My Toys:

LS-1F, owned it from 1976 to 2004, wing span 15 meters, glide ratio 1:36
ASH-25E, was partner with four others for 5 years, wing span 26 m, glide ratio close to 1:60, sold to back to Germany and it is the glider on my web page
I currently fly an ASH-26E single seater, wing span 18 meters, glide ratio 1:50, with an engine for self-launch. It looks this way when I take off , but the propeller retracts into the fuselage during soaring. The engine is a rotary (Wankel) engine and it remains in the fuselage. Other powered gliders, i.e. the ASH-25E, use a two stroke engine, which comes out together with the propeller, but this configuration is not powerful enough for a self-launch, it is only designed so that one can get home, when the thermals die.
