    The ahi is a great looking model. It was a toss up but I have always wanted to try a DLG, so in the end I went with a libelle. I like you colour scheme, dayglow orange is a good idea, so easy to spot. Also, WOW, what a hill it ,ust be a popular site for slopers.....

      Am sure you will have lots of fun with the Libelle. Ironically that slope is not a popular one, very limited parking and a long walk, but is the best slope in the area for the prevailing SW wind. Need to pull my finger out and film some of my other local slopes as they are all pretty good. Thanks for taking a look. 😄👍

    I think you are perhaps above Pewsey, I used to live in Wilcott, drank at the Barge and flew all over those ridges. Wonderful place for glider guiders.

      Haha, its a small world. Have neglected my local slopes for the last 10 years and hardly saw anyone flying. It seems they have not been forgotten though, especially for the large scale gliders as there is some great landing areas. Thanks for the sub, my first for many years.👍

      I may be biased, but think it`s a pretty good area for all wind directions. Hope to feature a few more local slopes in future vids. Thanks for taking a look👍

    Very nice...but this kind of hilltop and weather is very notorious for lightning strikes

      It is possible, though I do have my own cnc foam cutting machine and a cnc router which I could bolt a laser onto. Hope to do lots of building as I get back into the hobby so you never know.
