Great Planes Fling 2

[bladerunner1955]

Nice job you guys on the flying and the recording,,,,just got one to relax flying it down at the cliffs in Huntington Beach. I'll pull out the high start after seeing how cool yours went using it,,,Thanks

It's a very light glider. The servo layout is awkward. If you place the micro battery pack behind the servo's then the glider's too tail heavy. If you place it in front of the servo's then it's too nose heavy. I cut my servo tray out and placed 1 servo under the wing and 1 at the rear of the cockpit. Now it balances better. I recently replaced my Spektrum receiver with a Multiplex M-LINK receiver with a vario telemetry sensor seated just behind the tow hook. I haven't tried it out yet.

do you catch any thermals with this fling whats your longest time in the air just thermaling?? i want to get one but they seem a bit easy to fly with know real challenge is it more of a beginners sort of plane or is it not?

[fordXXXT]

Well I don't get any thermals where i live. It is good for beginners, but a experienced pilot would still get good use out of it. If you want a real challenge then I would get something with more channels, flaps, that kind of thing.

I used the included min Hi start. It launched it about 40-50m up, so if thats a "mini" then I wonder how high a heavy duty one would go, wow.

[velerito]

Nice video thanks for the post, could you tell me if you use a HI Start or a Heavy Duty Hi Start, thanks.
