  • To you it might have felt like 10-12 m/s but I can bet that it wasn't more than 6. By the way the wing is behaving it was about 5m/s in my opinion. A 10m/s wind would have dragged you if you launched the way you did.

  • 10-12m/s??? How you calculate that speed? This glider cannot fly with 40kmh front wind

see all

  • nice...but not 10-12meters....regsrds

  • theree isn't any lift, maximum 25 kph, this is my impression

  • indeed..extremely strong wind :D

  • nice pleace :)

  • @1956ron

    in strong winds its maybe safer to launch downwind from the road rather than upwind

  • good clip but that is not extremely strong wind, the grass is hardly moving!

  • smoothy played, nice swooping the camera man showing everything under control, nice :)

  • smooth and easy! nicely done.
