      How far off the leading edge at the root is your CG? I just built something similar but is all experimental on a untried plank/wing. I took it to a park and hand launched it to see if it would glide at all in no wind. To me it seemed like trying to fly a rock... Lol! Thanks!

    Andrew, just quick opinion;
    Better long range platform, reptile dragon 2 or ar wing pro??
    I watched your videos on both, wanted the H-wing also but changed my mind, so I hope you can give me your thoughts

    I’m still tempted to get one, but being used to a 2m Phoenix which flies like a bus in comparison.
    I wonder if my fingers will be fast enough for that agile little wing.

      I was pushing it to test the agility, can fly it smooth and slow if you want

    How likely is one to lose such a plane to the sea?
