over here we get terrible sink. flybys like this can be tricky.

I know what you mean. Even when the air is calm, sometimes I hit something and say, "What the heck was that?" Keep the speed up for good control.

@wrdturkey those are pockets of sinking air. air rises from the sun thus u get good lift when u are below the rising air u sink.

Was his short flight about demonstrating the camera mount?

Pretty nice skill. Is this done by just holding back on the throttle a bit to reduce lift.

It sure is. I don't think I really reach full throttle. After take off, you vary the throttle position for how high you want to go, then gradually decrease it to land. BTW - When's your first video coming out?

Its such a nice motor glider.how much its worth?and how high you can go.

I paid $6900 for it back in 1996 brand new. It was assembled, tested and ready to fly. I have a little more than $1000 in accessories (gages, parachute, strobe, etc.) It's priceless to me.
The highest I've flown it was 3800' AGL. I wasn't trying to set any records and could have gotten higher. The scenery is much better when you are down low. Especially on those hot summer days and everyone is in their swimming pools :)
Thanks for watching
