Electric Motors on Hang gliders and some Great Australian Flying Sites - 4k 

Awesome, fantastic scenery and a great spot to do quick launches. You guys are living the dream.

dude, those landings on the fence were crazy rad. I could never, would never have the balls to do that.

Found a hang glider for $750! As soon as I mechanically fit and weld an aluminum frame for my ebike, going to fuse the two together and add floats! And fly to Australia for the babes! Leaving no stone unturned until I find Ms. Right! A motorcycle with wings…Going to call it The Raven!

Fantastic flying boys on great sites 👍

Beautiful footage.

Rob, this is just getting better all the time. I love how it helped at Daydream plaza, I flew there once and it can be a real scratch, the assist looks like it would make it so much fun to fly. I would love to see if you guys could beat the south bound record at Bunbury, I reckon you guys would be able to jump the gap at stratham and head on to the Capel river if it had a bit of north in it.

Of course, we pilots pilot should should use this new technology with discretion in populated areas to avoid annoying the residents. But for exploring remote sites, I see this as a welcome development. Much lighter and more energy efficient than the old ultralight engines. And less stinky!

8:58 I had a flight like that one. I couldn't get back to the ground fast enough, even though there was a good chance I'd end up landing in a large patch of blackberries. With luck I missed them all.

That is it,most safe flying vehicle

Thats awesome I really want to do that 🤙😊

Some nice rigs and sites👍 I always wondered about doing a setup like this. I did envisioned a custom motor inside the keel or rejigging a keel to fit a motor. But having the thrust line off the keel seems ideal. However, as budget inventors we work outside of ideal and off the self. I currently fly a small delta trike and look to do a light weight electric setup,,,someday. Keep up the good work and safe landings.

So going electric increases the window of flight, making marginal conditions more manageable (for the most part, or are there some aspects of flight negatively impacted by the addition of weight, control systems & performance...and pilot skill?). I'd guess within the normal range of operation there are now maneuvers previously not routinely possible. that can be practiced with a greater degree of safety, allowing efficiency in skill development that may also transition back to flight without motors.

1:44 Frozen - no corrections what so ever. I've seen that over and over again. You need to let students run the glider on flat ground in low winds to get the feel for it and build some instinct.

Where can I read more about this motor/kit? I flew an Explorer many years. Thank you.

Super nice I would love to learn how to fly on a hangglider

Fantastic unit, I've now been roped into building one for a friend. On the throttle, you are using a potentiometer on the index finger right? I was wondering whether you ever use part throttle or whether a simple on/off control would be sufficient given the low power?

what kind of electric motor did you use? brand? thanks

great to see, where is this beach can I ask, cheers from Ohio

I'm a uk pilot and would love to have a small e motor like yours. Are you going to market it or would share the design?

Does anyone know where I could buy the prop system to go with my glider? THANKS!!

It's look so fuuuuun tastic

Muy bueeno! Muy buenoo!

COME È POSSIBILE COMPRARLO?

Why not the motor on the nose of the wing?

Hmm. High thrust line?

So if the guy ruins flying for the others because he wants that silly motor will he realize how silly it is? That thing would be annoying the people in the area no doubt. What the heck is he doing?

Those winds were "flyable", but not soarable.
