  • The Goat's a well established design by M Sandlin, instead of seeing it as 'setting gliding back 70 years' perhaps it'd be better to appreciate that it was designed to be simple to build by the amatuer, assembled and disassembled by one person, car toppable, easy to launch and nice to fly. In no way does it prevent development of more advanced sailplanes, instead it broadens the spectrum of available aircraft and puts aircraft ownership within the realms of many who otherwise couldn't afford it.

  • Wow! Once they learn how to hook up that control system so that the forward and backward motion of the joystick movies the elevator instead of the ailerons it will be dynamite!

  • instructive video and the music is so cool! thanks!

  • @pete2778 I agree that this design offers the average builder the chance to get into the air without relying on a harness, strong legs and the possibility of falling flat onto your own face at launch. I love the fact that you may sit there and watch the world go by without getting a kink in your neck. I have tried hang gliders and they definitely have their place, but this is a more user-friendly way of soaring on a budget. I do have the plans.

  • looks like the control cables rigged by the dutch...

  • Where can I get plans for the goat?

  • this worried me also

  • and you are an always will be a fuck head.

  • Got a point!!... lol

    Maybe they were just students learning 3D modelling... but not interested into flying... scary that a designer wanna be does not get interested in whatever they are modelling!!! yikes!

  • search "basic ultralight glider" on google... the designer / builder site will come up
