  • Every RC Plane Pilot owns a Glider/Sailplane because they are a GREAT joy to fly in the quiet evenings at sunset. The E-Flite Conscendo Gliders are some of the best based on performance.
    You can find the CONSCENDO GLIDERS at the links below:

    My first gliders were the Gentle Lady and QB1400. The Lady was such a pleasure.
    The thermals in summertime around Johannesburg meant loooong flights. On more than one occasion, a friend walked past and mentioned 'check your radio batteries '.
    Luckily, the Futaba radios had excellent battery usage.
    The good old days of having to build before flying.

    Well done Captain!; did not realise these amazing Flyers existed !; checked out the prices and the entry level ; smaller version is not to bad in Oz dollars (approx $270) ; going to get this as it looks like a very relaxing RC to fly !!!!

    • @CAPTAINDRONE798
      @CAPTAINDRONE798  Місяць тому +2

      Yes, super relaxing to fly, especially in the evenings.

    Imagine putting a o3 or walksnail and soaring in the montains.

  • @AerialWaviator
    @AerialWaviator Місяць тому +1

    Gliders tend to be trainers, or lower performance models. Sailplanes then to be higher performance models with better lift to drag ratios (and typically use more advanced materials).
    Good comparison is sports-car vs mini-van. Both are vehicles, one just more preferred by seasoned drivers.
    Gliders is appropriate in this case. Nice demos.
    BTW: sailplane is one word. (title, desc is correct)

    • @CAPTAINDRONE798
      @CAPTAINDRONE798  Місяць тому +2

      I believe you may be the first human to actually have placed gliders and sailplanes in categories. The Conscendo line are PERFORMANCE planes (super fast & highly 3D)

    • @AerialWaviator
      @AerialWaviator Місяць тому

      If want to get technical, these are motor-gliders. Sailplanes don't have motors. Performance really depends on context. These gliders are not likely to place high in a FAI soaring event. However they likely would out preform any planes at a typical RC field.

    • @CAPTAINDRONE798

      Yup… Some people simply amaze me. My guess is that these people skip through the video and these miss the important info.

    Hi Steve, question please: in the last few months didn't you review a hard case for the DJI Mini 4 Pro? I finally bought that drone and would like to find the hard case you reviewed for it. Thanks

    • @CAPTAINDRONE798
      @CAPTAINDRONE798  Місяць тому +2

      Nope, no hard case reviews for the DJI Mini 4 Pro. You probably see me with a hard case as I have a hard case for pretty much every DJI drone. For the MINI drones, I just make my own hard case by usually repurposing a small hard case that was designed for something else or buying an AMAZON BASICS hard case and cutting out the foam to my desired liking.

    Was this video recorded earlier this year when there was snow on the ground? As I thought this snow had already melted.

    • @CAPTAINDRONE798
      @CAPTAINDRONE798  Місяць тому +2

      Watch the first 30 seconds of the video and you’ll have the answer

    how is the concendo compared to a sky-king f959?

    • @CAPTAINDRONE798
      @CAPTAINDRONE798  Місяць тому +1

      Conscendo gliders are designed for high speed and 3d flying. They are different than your regular glider.
