Finally, after a year, test flew the glider! (Ronan already flew his proto).
Well, that thing fly great! Very surprising actually, as I was not expecting much performance! Only designed to be built by beginners, and fly as a trainer...
Anyway, on the Saturday, did the first launch in about 30 or maybe 40km/h wind. Straight from the launch, nothing to touch, like in a magazine! :lol:
Wind was no problem, and I was soaring without any issues. Rudder is very responsive, more than anticipated. Very little movement are needed.
Anyway, very pleased!
The next day, on the thermal day of the week end, launched the glider to show Stephen that it fly straight etc... Not expecting to fly at all! The little thing flew in virtually no wind without any issues!
Great little glider!
I think the guys who witnessed the flights can confirm! Very easy to fly, and a relatively wide range of wind! Need to try bungee launching now, and the circle will be complete!
Photos soon
