  • Sweet. You look like a hawk on those low pass overs. I love love your kite. Never had them in my days of hang gliding

  • no yaw control? how does it attain about yaw stability? with the tiny wiglets at the swept wing tips?

  • @flower150

    holy fuck i think i just pooped a little. so it wouldent be dificult, on the right air current, to go cross country?

    MrPLOXPLOXPLOX 1 year ago

  • @MrPLOXPLOXPLOX this is hang glider, para glider is the parachute thing. and these can stay up as long as you wish, I think it's hard to land, much harder than paraglider though.

  • i think paragliding is by far better

    naxofruta 1 year ago

  • @naxofruta Well.. depends on what's your goal, where you fly and how far you want to fly. If you have take offs which are difficult to reach, like aerobatics, do not care about doing 200 km in a row with ease or simply like to take it easy, I agree, paragliding is better. Otherwise, the opposite. I'm luky to live in a gliding paradise: fassa valley (Italy). Come and have fun!

  • Don't the Atos wings start at about $18000 U.S. dollars? They fly like rocketships. Beautiful wings~

    pilotemtnils 1 year ago

  • @captbimbo Looks like a lot of fun. Do you ever encounter people with radio control gliders and does that cause any problem for you?

    I'd love to give this a go something - o well, nice to have a long term goal...

  • Voei no Brasil, em alguns estados como Rio de Janeiro, Governador Valadares e pincipalmente no Espírito Santo, durante uns 13 anos. Gostei do voo seu voo, voas muito bem, minha asa era uma Magic IV 177. Parei de voar devido a minha idade, voei direto, toda semana, umas de 1 a 2 horas cada voo. Minha idade hoje é 69 anos- Veja no Youtube "moto sem piloto 3 " e verás meu novo esporte.

    Parabens grande voador...congratulations for you.

  • Fun to watch! I did that once at Kitty Hawk - N.C. and it was only a lesson - Scarey but fun? Butterflies in the stomach - Also went Plane Gliding with my brother in law - That was really scarey but fun!

    neogastropoda1 4 years ago

  • Gay?!? Try strapping a glider on and you'll find out where your balls are, if you have any. I thought it was an excellent flight and great video.

    tomterahedrob 4 years ago

  • Ah, no. Its not me flying. I just took the vid. The pilot is top uk class-5 pilot Nev Almond. Wingspan is about as long as any hang-glider so far I believe. Don't know the length, sorry.

    captbimbo 4 years ago

  • Look it up on the net - its a lot longer than a normal flexwing HG. Beautiful wing.
