    Awesome flight. That Tow plane deserves credit as well. Man. Can you imagine maidening that glider after such a loooong build. I still get the shakes maidening a plane I built in a week

      The audience that watch this kind of videos are ENTHUSIASTS not just here to listen to elevator music... we are trying to learn everything we can about the subject of the video. Like a documentary, the original audio is an important part of all but the shallowest of childrens slime and unboxing vids.
      Never feel pressured to make your video 'better' by adding music over the sound of the subject.

    Why are ailerons and flaps still working with this extreme bending of the wing? The hinge line should look very curved thus making making any movement very difficult.

    bit much dihedral due to wing bending? Never thought towing could work with a tow line obstructed rudder.

    • @davidGrainger
      @davidGrainger 4 роки тому

      Wings seem to be way too flexible. Seems to be accurate scale though - the full size Eta does this too, maybe even more: ua-cam.com/video/9USXmOQdQDc/v-deo.html

    It is not the size of the glider that matters. It is how you use it! I am certain a 12 meter glider would work just as good. Who knows some may even like a 12 meter glider better than a 15, 45 meter glider! 15,45 meter gliders are considered too big for some. There is nothing wrong with 11 meter glider either. If I happen to have even a 10 meter glider, which I am not saying mine is only 10 meters, some like that even better. Size is not everything! 10 meters is more than adequate for many. But again, this is neither a conformation nor a denial that my glider is 10 meters long, which is big anyway. Doctor Sigmund Freud would have a lot to say about this, excessive, 15,45 meter glider. But he would say nothing negative about a 10 meter glider, which I am not saying that is the size of my glider or not.
