@kokalti Then it's more like dancing than sailing. It's all good.

what I love about Hang gliding, its peaceful, its quiet, its birdlike.
What I don't like is that you are stuck going around in circles unless you catch a thermal, You can't fly cross country at low altitudes.

Are these long boom camera mounts easy to get hold of; along with neodymium magnets and are they expensive?, cannot believe how stable the are!.

@gliderman4rjp I designed and built the magnetic boom. It's extremely light weight but stiff because i also reinforced it w/ external Spectra bracing. Many pilot have copied my basic design using the materials they have available to each of them. Have you seen my video that shows the boom?

@gliderman4rjp Thanks. The camera was mounted on a long boom that was attached to the lower surface by a series of neodymium magnets.
