You should definitely change the video title, so everyone knows that these people are complete beginners 😅 As a viewer I didn't expect seeing rookies making their very first flight experience. My first reaction without this background info was like: "Wow damn, those take-offs are already hard to watch, I don't want to have such pilots around me when I'm airborne"
you know.. i have learned a lot last half year.. to be honest it becomes hard to watch for me as well :D In the mean time i bought my own mountain glider and a few sure soaring gliders. I am back from lijak now and will go to lijak and ahornach in 5 weeks :D i am Hooked! So the glider that i bought is a Niviuk Hook 6 P.
Hey super tof. Ik ben die dude met die gele helm en groen scherm. Zat ook lekker te klooien in het begin en was even passagier achter mn scherm, maar zie mezelf later vliegen.... Ik ben er morgen weer. Jij ook?
Not an easy day for beginner pilots. I think you will do just fine when the wind is less cross. Practise within your limits until than. No shame in just flying little hops against the wind and leave the downwind beat for when you have more experience. I'll see you around Dennis!
So, small explaination. We where with a training school. There where always two instructor at launch. One talking through radio and checking wing etc. Other instructor also check wing from different angle. These where our first and second flights. In may we will go to lijak Slovenia and you will see improvements then!
@@sprokkel30Nobody except the first is looking up after inflating the wing. Just last week I had to help a pilot down from a ski lift because he had cravattes on each side but proceeded the start nevertheless. He stayed unharmed but he needs a new set of lines.
thank you for your comment, you are right that we didn’t look at the wing for cravats. We where with a group of very inexperienced people. But we where with a school. We always had 2 instructors at launch site to check our wings. If we would have been aborted. Cheers
Wing checking on forward launch is a little controversial. Some say you should look up, others say it can cause instability in the wing when slowing and easing tension in lines when trying to look up. Personally, I never look and always go on feel and have never had a problem. However, I will always do a reverse launch whenever possible, then you are 100% sure.
Ein Start katastrophaler als der Andere..... aber gut das ist man von Bassano gewohnt.... sehe dort jede Woche die Pfeifen die mehr Glück als Verstand haben.... 99% von denen gehört umgehend die Lizenz entzogen..... danke fürs Teilen... wäre ein tolles Schukungsvideo wie man es nciht macht...
@@sprokkel30 be able ti Start and Land safely has nothing to do with XC 😅😅😅😅…… please make Training….. you can make a good Training with the Bassano Instructor also…. Mr Andreas Breuer if needed….. be Safe guys
@@sprokkel30 yes of Course….. if you look the Starts you See that quiet everyone forces the wing and starts without control of the wing….. as those are all new wings already a Speed of 2,5mph is enough to keep the wing up and this gives you also a lot of time to control and stabilize if needed…… most of the pilots doesn‘t even take a look if the wing is perfectly open without any cravats…… to summarize too much effort and stress…… should do it much calmer and so also safer…….. the landings are quit all made with already pulled brakes ….. thats not good and also dangerous….. all New wings have a high Flare factor…. This gives you the posdibility to fly full speed which is much safer for Rotors and Wind shares….. then only use the brake when you are 1 Meter above ground to flare and brake……. It seems but this is only my Impression that all this pilots have only tiny experience in Mountain Flying….. maybe you come from a country without Mountains? This is only my Impression…… I live in the Alps im the middle of the Dolomiten Mountains and each starting mistake means death ( unfortunately also today a pilot died:-(…) several this month……. I Hope my first comment wasn‘t too unfriendly but I‘ve already seen so Mans people be killed and injured that it makes me angry if I see how dangerous some people try to fly :-)
@@paulino3320 Thank you for the feedback. So we all did a beginners cours, al these flights where first flights ever done so no one had any experience. The only thing we did was 1 or 2 days ground handling in 0 wind. After this course I bought my own set and I do understand what you mean. We had instructors laying out the wing and looking for Crevits or other dangers. Instructor would abort us if things where not ok. Anyway I appreciate your comment and maybe it seems rude at the start, you only have good intentions :) and I am happy to learn. We are all from the Netherlands, 0 mountains… ;)
@@sprokkel30 Just doing my job spying on your vids ;) Jokes aside its nice to see youre living life and doing well, shame we cant rewind like 12 years though xD
Thank you for bringing such a creative and unique view into this video. This is exactly what I needed after a long and stressful week in many ways. It is very refreshing to pause for a moment and get emerged into such a new experience, at least like this. Completely forgot about everything thanks to you. Wish you all the best ;)
I was here aswel sadly not for the pleasure but to be a 100% honest i am over the moon that i was invited to be part of the 10th edition of Dreamfields! I can't wait for the new dream next year!
Rigid wing with weight shift and no aileron? Looks like it wont turn well. Is the builder a HG pilot? If so he should know that... Weight shift needs a flexible wing to work. A rigid wing like an Air Atos only turns with spoilerons.
The pilot pod will not work with proper weight shift movement. The pilot pod will twist and cross steer making coordinated turns improbable. Definitely needs a fabric wing with a floating cross bar.
Hello Dennis my name is kilian and I'm currently working on a 3.50 span model. I find the version of your pilot really great and I wanted to ask if it possibel to share the print file wiht me, of course, i would only use it for my self. I would be very happy if that were possible. of cours I am be willing to give something for that.
You mean two wires that go to the receiver. It’s because when you feed power through two wires the load through these wires is less then when you have only one wire.
because the servo type connectors on them are rated 10a max. since the device can deliver 20a peak, it makes sense to have two of them. they are actually in parallel from the output. you have to connect both to your load to minimize voltage drop and to deliver the max current possible
