There are three fine threads hanging from the LE to the batten attachment in the back. The two outer ones (2 ft each side from the noseplate) come loose at the back end (the left one at 1.20) and are hanging loose all the rest of the video... what's that?

Nice music, dreamlike... like flying... :-)

I sometimes wonder about your choice of harness and /or glider... is the Sensor more fun in certain conditions? And - I don't know what the temperature was, but it's february, even in California, isn't it? So why not the Covert?

It's funny to look at the fin, obviously there is some amount of sid...

@NMERider Oh of course, should have known that... I'm not really a ZZtop man...

Hey can't you use a Little Feat song for a soundttrack once? :-)

Glad to see it's not always fine weather in California...

It's a beautiful glider, a colour scheme I should remember.

Ah I now see that question was answered just above... too bad, in holland the max weight for an RC plane is 25 kg...

nice snowflakes...! :-)

I doubt the weaklink would have broken if you had not released. The peak of the snag was over before you could reach for the release, it would have had no more reason to break.

In Holland they do also step tow paragliders, and we have steptowed HG's for almost as long as we tow. Its hard enough t...

If you cut the shots any shorter then this, you might as well use photographs... personally, I dont get enough time to enjoy the view. I liked the music though!

Forget about a bigger prop... start changing the present one so that it faces forward! That will give you a lot more power. The prop blades have a profile for a reason...

superb top landing... at least you put up some good music! :-)

Impressive... note the excessive slack in the front wires, it explains a lot about spinning.

I never noticed this before, but it suddenly struck me how the Xbar haulback cable curves up when you pull the VG - visible on both cameras here. Nice footage & nice music...

...like a super Rubiks Cube...

Nice Jonathan!

What's that rope dangling from your harness boot (not the VG rope)?

I missed the remarks (either in audio or text)...

@FCbisleybob ...and why ask dumb questions?

How come all these "four button chargers" are so similar - are they all based on the same software or even the same hardware?

I think this should be called a barrel roll rather then a loop. You are rotating along the longitudinal axis, aren't you?

I had a similar experience once when the VG rope broke and the Xbar got stopped by the retainer cable. I think I looked around just like you... then I felt the VG rope and found it was completely slack...

Bruce, do you have any idea why FrSky / Quanum have not yet come up with a variometer sensor for their telemetry system? I think a relatively simple add-on like that would double the market for any telemetry system. At a price like Quanum's, every budget RC sailplane flyer would want it...

Hope y...

Okay now when is the variometer sensor due?

...and the dreaded time stamp is gone, that's one big advantage...

Bruce, you need a bit of exercise; the way a little stroll around the yard has you puffing... :-)

Looks like a B8 copy... including the lack of a 2S balance port. B8 is good, this one will be good as well..

Now HK sells a nice little trick (actually branded Turnigy) to charge two 3S lipo's through a 6S port ; why isn't there a similar thing to charge two 2S lipo's through a 4S port?

Ik heb hier erg van genoten Johan, het begint dan toch weer wat te kriebelen...

A better test would have been, to work things out with HK first and then report on it. The way it goes now, HK will probably hurry to put things back in order; which does not say much about what happens if it was mr. X who had not received his TX...

Not doubting HK's service - just the method of ...

I did like the bass riff!

Watching the video, I thought I would react on 2 things: the 30 sec. intro, and the hairy arms. But both have been taking care off already...

you'd think a pusher prop would be a perfect defense against attacking birds...
