I had a Bonanza2 and just changed to Bonanza3. The main differences are that the B3 is a two-liner with a wave leading edge. But the difference in behavior is noticeable.
You mean, the speed assist of the tow briddles, right? I don't like them with high-performance gliders. It will outrun the vehicle unless the vehicle goes very fast and that is bad on a short street. I prefer to speed up the glider myself if I need it, but really I don't need it. Also, hooking just one side is the worst that you can do, and it has happened to me. So, no hooking them up is one less thing to check on launch.
@@axelolsson9059 I still recommend it for anyone starting to tow. This is because the second effect of the speedassist is to steer the wing towards the center of the pulling force. So, for a pilot new to towing, this is a mechanism that helps them get accustomed to what is the proper angle of flying when towing. But you are absolutely right that faster wings do not need it. If the pilot has no problem keeping the wing well aligned with the pulling force, there is no reason to use it.
The bonanza 3 is the only C 2 liner with the Wave Leading edge. This is a technology created by Gin and its value is still being doubted, but it makes the wing more stable, pushed the stall backward, and makes the wing climb more naturally, especially when in thermals, and also makes the whole glider easier to manage. For me, however, the main reason is that I'm a fan of Gin gliders. I'm accustomed to how they feel and react to my commands.
@@rolandsanguino tanks my friend... considered the artik R? in the analysis of technical data, the swing paraglider seems to have better performance, but they are not popular in Brazil
@@breisfacincani No. I didn't consider other gliders. I loved that the Bonanza 3 was a 2 liner C. But very important to me was that I didn't want to get a glider more difficult to manage. From all the C 2-Liner gliders out there, the Bonanza 3 has been consistently rated as the easiest to manage. That has just affirmed my decision.
@@rolandsanguinoIf it doesn't bother you, I can ask you to answer the questions. Were there any defects with risers (increased A3 wear) or rigid foils during the operation of Bonanza 3? How often does a wing want to collapse and how easily does it get out of such situations? If you've tried Avid or flown nearby, does Avid bonanza 3 lose out in terms of climbing?
Nothing like a nice new glider👍
What nice glider , nice video !!!!
Cool camera angle on the glider in the thermals, thanks for sharing.
😊 Ein heißer Stil😂
Nice flight, thank you for your thoughts on the new Bonanza.
5:30!! nice
What sunglasses are you using?
I noticed that your speed system was not engaged. Why is that? It is my understanding, that it helps with angle of attack issues, when towing.

Its a thing of the past to use speed assist during towing, modern wings behaves good without it.

What is your location in FL? I’m looking paragliding spots.
Very nice video. why buy bonanza 3 over competitors? I'm in doubt which glider c 2 lines to buy
