    Too long? Too short? Boring? Comment please!

      a little long, would be better with some exposition but enjoyable none the less.

      It is enviable.
      It's like flying next to you.
      Unfortunately, in Hungary, flying so low is forbidden.

      @@jackryan152 I'm trying to find the sweet spot. It's long for me, too, but there are folks that crave this stuff!

    I loved it! That is what ultralight flying is all about - low and slow. 😊

    Good job! I wonder if it helps to see the power lines with or without sunglasses? It's a big fear of mine which is why you never see me low level. Plus East Texas is bland

    • @CourtneyTakesFlight

      Good question. There's a lot of stress when I fly that low. I only do it when the camera is rolling. Otherwise I'm at least 1k AGL, usually higher.

    You've working hard thru the night..... I've been looking at some of the Gliding Wings that are used on a trike configuration &
    they also can be a Paramotor setup too. But I don't like a Chute or floppy wing that you must get filled up w/ air before you
    can rotate. I like the Wing that has a "Bar Control" that you'd use to do all the steering/control stuff. But I'm just looking at
    everything including these units like you're flying here. So many considerations & I don't have money to waste so I'm doing
    all I can in the front end so I know what I'm looking at. Thanks for all your work Ms Courtney. peace & GB

      That's why I am here with you, Ms Courtney..... I recognize that you fought to get here & I'll have to do the same. In
      saying that, it's a good thing I do not have the money to buy right now. Too easy to get into an impulse buy which
      can lead to big mistakes. I'll see ya on the next vid... peace

    Hello from Hellas Athens LGMG.Very nice

    What is that blue tube that is hanging down from the wing at right where the aileron starts?

    • @danielboone1570
      @danielboone1570 12 днів тому +1

      That looks like an airspeed indicator. Usually there is a little hole on front side and as you pick up speed it pushes air through the hole and there is a flat plate inside the tube that has one single rod from bottom to the to of the tube and the little flat plate will get push up in the tube higher and higher the faster you go and on the side of the outer tube it has marks that when that flat plate raises up inside you can read how fast you are going bases on that. It's really simple but very reliable at same time and light weight too.

      Camera mount. Don't do this at home. It affects the way the plane flies.

    What altitude does the ultralight fly at usually?

    • @CourtneyTakesFlight
      @CourtneyTakesFlight  12 днів тому +1

      This airplane, up to 10k feet. A legal ultralight, 18k. I usually fly 1k to 3k for safety reasons.

    Miss Courtney I'm a new subscriber. I'm somewhat of an old grump. But I always try to be helpful.
    I already have a grump with you. This is the first video I watched. I get to the end of the video. You left little time to judge you. Of course I made my mind up yes , yes I want to subscribe. The time I got the second yes out the video stopped after you invited me to join and I had to restart.
    At any time if you find me too grumpy let me know, I will politely understand.
    I judge people. Now that you have been judged, I'll probably hit the like button sooner.
    👍 Please don't give me a 👎.

      Sometimes things are out of my hand. Rewatching is a pain in the butt, I agree. I may have lost subscribers that way.

    • @shawnmts7109
      @shawnmts7109 5 годин тому

      @CourtneyTakesFlight I seriously doubt that not for that reason.
      For some reason I'll find any little reason to be an old grump.
      Hopefully I'll find a chance to binge watch all your videos one day. If I find any comments I'll try to post them on your newest videos. I'm far from perfect and if I ever offend you in any way let me know and I'll bow out I truly understand my imperfections just not enough to control them.
      Happy holidays.

    Given my background as an aeronautical engineer, I have a deep interest in this topic. I would like to request your expertise on building it at home.

    • @CourtneyTakesFlight

      I have a video series on the steps to build this airplane and get the AWC for it. Check playlists on this channel for that!
