Watching a lot of collapses on youtube. I see ONE repeating pattern: releasing B-tension half a second before the collapse. My theory is that we release too quickly in general. It's ok to release fully - although I doubt this at full bar - but probably muuch slower.
The forward surge of the Leopard at 0.13 was enormous. Pilot handled it very well with his arms all the way down - but still it was almost too little too late. Extremely professional recovery of a quite dynamic glider. Chapeau...
They all look pretty scary like they had high aspect ratios. I have an epsilon nine am learning to fly. It has a potato shape. I enjoyed the video but I didn't see a b Wing
@@acrosivcloud5862 thank you so much for all that numerical data. I'm more of a payload than I am a pilot at this point because I haven't had time to develop any habits at all. I figure unbuckle my chest strap lean forward as far as I can. Fly in hands up from 100 ft generate the maximum parasitic drag I can tip the nose down and flare hard-and-fast at one meter. Will this work? I want to develop roll control and have a level Wing when on approach. I'm a payload not a pilot and I'm going to do extra ground-handling but I don't begin to pretend I can do a curving swoop landing and control all three axis at once on my first landing.
It works but the trailing edge tends to collapse when the wing goes back. This leads to a little shoot on entry. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-h7VrwUZAYr0.html
In the air (thermals) the Bonanza feels more loaded and tight but also a bit more dynamic. The E1 is like a baby bonanza, same movements, a little less agressive, lightweight therefore it communicates in a nice way.
