sorry to be offtopic but does anybody know of a trick to log back into an instagram account??
I was dumb lost my account password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
@Damon Ahmed Instablaster :)
@Mordechai Boone I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im in the hacking process atm.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
You certainly know your aircraft. It is though you have it mentally connected. I enjoy watching you fly.
I fly 1.5 meter Discus Launch Gliders. They have amazing performance, can climb in the lightest of lift. But I've always wondered just how much better it would be if they were much bigger. Now I know.
Beautiful model and great skill as well. I like the way you casually say you won the F5J world championships last year.
That thing turns right around the wingtip, incredible. Thanks for the vid.
this video brought back memories when I was a young boy .. my A1 glider I also handlaunched unfortunately it was not RC controlled and it flew away on a powerful thermal. I relived my youth thank you for your super video .
fabulous video. I have flown model gliders in the past before flying full size this past 20 years.
I can see me trying this and getting my left and right mixed up and throwing the transmitter up the runway while I keep hold of the glider 🤣🤣
Ouh that would be not that right 😂 you could use a strap for securing your transmitter 😉
The glider is the giant plane-looking thing.
Pretty simple.
LMAO that made me laugh
@@RCflyingmore but then with strap he would launch himself... Though not very far😊 lovely flying btw!
Possibly a cheaper option😂
I really like this conversion from F5J to handglider. I think engineless gliders are the best. I understand that the F3J category is almost gone. I think it was the best because you exercised and at the same time you thought. Now many people prefer to move as little as possible.
Beautifully controlled glider, amazing turns! Great to watch it hang in the wind!! Nice video
Thank you very much :)
Wow! That's some great tight thermaling.
This glider flys a lot, a dream for glider pilots! And your hands are great adjusted😎✌️✌️. They fly and fly slow and strong. Great work 👏👏
I prefer electric gliders, but it glides so smoothly I wish I have one! Nice video 👌
Beautiful bird and performance
Back in the day I had a 50" HLG called "Flipper". I had a lot of fun with it in small fields.
Doing a search for Flipper, the one I see is NOT the one I had then, the one I had was all balsa wood, the newer Flipper looks like a lot of carbon parts. The one I had was made by Bridi Aircraft Designs, I found the plans for it. Might hafta just grab some balsa and get things dusty.
I used to chuck my Pike Perfect into thermals at a sod farm in Rhode Island. Love not using a winch or hi-start. Great video!
Great designen Superb!
But is it Mind CONTROLED because How the heck does the glider return to your hands Launcher ?!!!!!. Fascinating!!!
Thank you for sharing your video.
All the Very Best to you and keep gliding.
JB. UK. 🇫🇴🇦🇺.
F5J als HLG ist aus meiner Sicht die faszinierendste (nicht vorhandene) Modellklasse. High-Tech-Modelle ohne den ganzen Antriebs- und Windenkram reduzieren Modellfliegen auf das Wesentliche. Und wenn dann so eine Performance dazukommt, macht das Zuschauen Spaß.
Da gebe ich dir recht! Auch als Pilot macht es unglaublich Spaß und das Gefühl wenn man in der Thermik kreißt ist einfach Klasse
schon allein für dein Englisch lohnt sich das Video 😋 Nein im Ernst klasse Flieger 👍
Hi Julian, thanks for sharing your ideas and nice flights! If I could suggest a possible future topic, it would be, if you would be so kind and sharing you way of setting up a newly build glider, I mean only that you tell us the basic steps a principle you follow (in particular V tail glider, such as this in the video) as well as arrangement of the different controls on the transmitter which works well for you. (For example visibly, you work all the time with flaps, so you must have it assigned to a place that is in the right position..) thanks for considering! Have a great day!
Hi Adrian,
thank you for your feedback!
I have planned to do that with the Xperience Pro F5J in future ;-)
Greetings
Julian
It looks like it's filled with Helium ;) Very nice glider
Haha, the chamber for the helium would be much heavier, then the model itself. But nice thought ;-)
@@RCflyingmore but why couldn't the chamber(s) be a latex balloon that you just fill up before flight?
@@adamsmith5913 Shhhh... You have just told the world his secret!
I think there are some large fuselage indoor flyers that are filled with helium, so it can work..
See. ua-cam.com/video/68V0tNMDScA/v-deo.html
@@paulhope3401 that's basically an airship
@@hydroflare5037 Yep, pretty much. An airship made to fly like a plane. I'm guessing its using thrust differential to turn.. wonder if/what its using for pitch control.
Super gemacht, enfach und efektiv. Der Erfolg liegt in der Hand. TOP
Amazing performance, both, the glider and your skills.
Great looking glider. It should look great, at £1400+!
climbs like a homesick angel
long time hobby guy getting interested with HLG but yours was inspiring............
Impresive performance! Congrats to the world cup victory :o)
I'm amazed by the accuraty with wich you are able to control this glider. Very beautifull! And what a great glider; from handstart into a thermal and there she goes. Fantastic flying.
I have never seen flying like this.
Is this Julian Benz?
The glider responds like a faithful live bird as it comes back to its owner and in a split second brought to stall also with brakes!
I watch in awe at this skilful flying.
Thanks.
Peter
Yes, I (Julian Benz) was the pilot in this video.
Thanks for this honouring words :)
@@RCflyingmore
Julian...thank you for taking the time to even reply.
I am limited to micro scale gliders because of places to fly them.
I have just built the Carl Dowdy " Bug" from plans and tissue and doped it.
It has a V tail which I have never built before.
I have modelled for 50 years now but never built a modern Hlg or Dlg with carbon spars etc.
It is ultra light and I love to learn modern build concepts
What I have to ask you as a world class Rc glider pilot is......
You have chosen a V tail design.
What are the advantages?
If you have time to answer I will also be honoured.
Happy happy flying and please continue to " wow" us with your unequalled skills!
Peter
Are you kidding man
It's insane 😱
What black magic is this? I have flown a good number of gliders, but have never seen this kind of performance. I think I need to reevaluate what I fly now... Also need to find me a budget for an upgrade. (current models flying are Gentle lady and MPX Heron)
I had a 2 metre balsa glider which I thought was big but yours is a monster
You get used to it, even with that size ;-)
Just the same way I often use my F3J glider as HLG at fine sunny day - throw it by hand and climbe without towing. It's fun, and no need to retrieve the tow line. My glider is more than 2 kilos.
thank you for the video, I really enjoyed it!
This is so cool.
Seems to be light as a sheet of paper, genius ‼️👍👍👍
Yes it's light, but I have even a lighter one also ;-)
A lot of paper is neded to have one.
Thermal here ,thermal there... You have skills and lucky .
And money.
Fantastic Glider and Video 🤩 What‘s the AUW on that beauty?
Good video, thank you for sharing this wonderful moment. May I ask the model number? Manufacturer? And how much it cost? Sorry for asking many questions. Thinking to have one myself. 🙏
Perhaps you could also use the holes of the 3D printed piece and the motor mount in the fuselage to screw it ?
But if tape do the job, it’s a fast solution.
Julian - Awesome videos. I loved all of them. But your flat field must have plenty of thermals. IN Asia.. mostly sink is all around :-(
Thank you! Normally where sink is, is also lift. But of course in some regions it's more difficult to catch some thermals
Thats amazing, like it was alive!
I wonder if the PWR on solar is good enough for that? Without a motor, the draw from RC stuff is likely minimal. Could probably stay up longer than most people are willing to keep flying it.
That's very impressive.
Sky that Baby!
Subbed and belled. Great channel!!
einfach Top ....
Spectacular
4M DLG anyone? That was great. I esp liked how you popped the flaps to slow it down instantly.
I miss my monarch D Light hlg days
Hi Julian
How do you build the sleeve for the canopy?
Hi Franz,
it's only a heat shrink that I used for it. Check out my fuselage assembly video from the Xperience Pro F5J on this channel, there you can see how it's made.
@@RCflyingmore Many thanx Julian :-)
Thats so cool
Top notch flying
loads of pure fun, but what's the price ?
not everybody is a champion, just wants to have the thrill and joy with a supreme performance
The price is around 1800-2800€ ready to fly depending on the version and built in components.
Sounds probably a lot, but the model is handmade and not easy to manufacture with that quality.
Gigantisch , fantastisch . Spitze 💎👍🏅⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐♥️💪
Ooooooo yeeeeeeee 🤘 nice
Parabéns muito bonito o planador top
fantastic, love catching thermals on a HLG, what is the AUW?
How much does it weight?
Awesome!
I love this video. Could you tell me what the model is exactly?
I have to have one of those.
Just awesome flying. It made my day. Thank you.
hello frm argentina!!..whats material its made? tnx!!
It's made out of carbon vibre in foam sandwich built
Ya... das ist gut
I sort of already have a big flap explorer, but I want this one too!!!!
And here I am building a 600mm dlg glider :D
Даже 2-х метровый плохо термики ловит переходи на 2 метра
На 3 метра
“I also world javelin thrower”.....lol
I
What is the name of that plane and where can I get one?
what an awesome video !
Amazing.
Schönes Video
Hello, what is the total weight including battery? And what is the "standard light"? I can only find either light or standard versions (besides FAI limit and strong).
Dude. I have to do this
Can you please link some details about thermaling and how to achieve it?
Geil. Gruss aus California
Nice glider, looks expensive .
Yeah it's not the cheapest one, but considering the amount of development and work that has been done to built it, then it is not expensive
nice video bro :) love it !!
Thanks 😁
@@RCflyingmore Come on check m'y Chanel for more beautiful picturs :)
Great model and a very enjoyable channel. Good work.
so were you standing right in a thermal?
Oooooooooooooooo Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee perfect 🤘
Youn sound like speedsterden! Are you him?
Cual es su precio?
Nice! Is the V-tail still available? I only see X tail versions for sale on SoaringUSA and NANModels.
The X-tail is more in common, but NAN-Models also still builds the V-tail fuselages
🌬️👍
Nice!!Hur much did you had to cut the nose to get the center of gravity right?
Thank you! I haven't shortend the nose for converting it to the handlaunch glider
@@RCflyingmore yes,I know.The one with motor?
Was wiegt das Modell fertig aufgerütstet wie im Video?
exellent
How many € kost it
How did you build your plane ?
Oh, just out of carbon fibre & tesa tape :)
The model will be shipped almost assembled. Only electronics need to be installed in the model :)
The tesa tape is just for keeping the parts together ;-)
What's the weight ready to fly? It's awesome!
With motor around 1300g depending on the used battery
In dead air, how long do you think you can fly with each toss?
That would depend on your own strength, but I would guess 30 seconds on average
What's you AUW? Any guesses on your launch height?
I've only seen AVA's and Bubble Dancers float like that.
Must be between 1200 and 1300 grams.
Something around 1300g depending on the used setup.
I have planned to log the launch height in a future video. Estimated launch height around 20m.
How much is it?
Where can i buy,,?
I wanted to ask you which mod you fly, 1 or 2?
I fly mode 1
Fun, fun, fun
yes, it is
How can I get or scratch build one?
The model will be shipped almost assembled from NAN-models.
Only electronics need to be installed in the model.
How much
Hi, that's the extra long boom? Thanks
No it is not the ultra long boom
how is its weight?
