incredible stall!

Flying over un-populated practice area and trying out the Halls Brothers Vortex Generators - stall used to happen sharply around 38 MPH with a clean break and one wing tending to drop, now seems the airplane mushes along at 25 MPH with the stick full back and only partial power and only a 100 foot per minute descent according to the VSI - ground speed on the GPS reads about 28 MPH when airspeed went to below 20 - the VG's are the best!

thanks for the concern (really) I have spun the airplane before from 3 thousand and took one revolution in 200 feet - came out of spin easy within 200 feet - I always had that ball centered and the plane never fully stalled - I was feeling my way along the sky with the rudder pedals!!! but thanks again for the concern gentlemen

thanks but had the ball in the middle whole time plane made no hint of dropping one wing or the other but... anyway been there done that

Hi!

Is your camera an Aiptek Pocket DV Z 100 LE or a Toshiba Camileo Pro HD?Please answer.

[papipilot]

Yes it is the Aiptek - but I fitted a small wide angle lens that locks on with a magnetic ring - great cam

[Simtester94]

Did you used the same camera what in your other videos?

[papipilot]

yes all my videos are shot with the aiptek

How much did you loose on the top end?

[kamicazeandre]

i would like to know how many feet can u recover from a spin and if this airplane can come out easy from a spin cause u are flying very slow at 800 ft isn't it

[sowmach]

careful with the spin at that altitude!!

[sardorn]
