  • There are two video recorders at the base of the kingpost recording the feeds from the two cigar cams on the glider. We new we would be lucky to get one flight, so they wanted two mounted cameras on right away. I blew it on the aiming of the rear camera and got the recorders in the shot. Oh well.

  • Talk about rotors! Wouldn't want to get in THAT prop wash! Amazing.

  • looks like a blast, I want to try....thanks John

  • More likely a parachute

  • I would vote on it being a camera.

  • Whats on the top of John's glider at the base of the kingpost?
