This glider wasn't supposed to set a record, but it did it anyway! 

That glide is flatter than fresh roadkill, Josh!!! Congrats

There is something really magical about the way free flying airplanes fly. Just mesmerizing.

Yes, that is the best free flight glider model I've ever seen.

Congratulations, Sir! Thank you for sharing your accomplishments with us!

This is so fascinating. I just bought two indoor gliders. Congrats on the record.

Good job on avoiding collision with Kent State's steel roof structure. 🤠

Well done Josh. Congratulations.

World record attempts are awesome! Congratulations on your accomplishment and good luck on future endeavors.

Vertical climb with a snappy recovery is always magic, to me. This airplane especially so. Almost seems like you have autosurfaces kicking it over. Just beautiful flying.

Wow, Josh. That's impressive!

Congratulations Joshua!

Congratulations. What a wild but consistent transition - looks like a mini bunt straight into it's right turn.

A real inspiration. The plane has a Gorgeous glide !!

Awesome performance. Congrats!

Great job!

The transition at the top of the test flights so smooth and effortless, fantastic flyer you’ve trimmed 😃👍

I was like, Yeah Right, Til I saw it transition and fly. Outstanding

Awesome 👌 👏 👍 Fantastic day to see innovations skills of Flying objects..God Almighty Bless 🙌 all Aeromodelling enthusiasts..love You guys

🎖👏👏👏👍Thank you so much!!!

Congratulations!

Really really nice work...congrats... must go back n try building some gliders myself... thanks for inspiration!

A thing of beauty!

Love those transitions!

The crowd went nuts! 😀

another great video!

A great plane! I just love the way this holds its altitude, all the way through the flight. Well done Josh! 🌟👍

Congrats!

That's awesome! 😀

Sometimes, you don't need all that fancy stuff. Old school rules.

👍way to go 🎉

You easily have a box to put it in. Look at the latch top type Tupperware type boxes behind you, a utility knife, and a hot glue gun, you can make a custom, latch-able box easily from that.

Nice!

Absolute dream 💭

Randomly tuned into this. You seem easily amused ! Sort of like a cat with a ball of string.

Got Depron, Balsa and Carbon, never heard of Vector board before. Hmm EPP, sounds perfect for my models that always bumped things. Got some EPP, never thought of slicing it for indoor models, but I have sliced Depron. Need to go down this rabbit hole and learn these new tricks.

อยากได้แปลนเครื่องนี้ครับ..ขอบคุณมากครับ

If it’s so cold inside wouldn’t the hot air created by the lights create an updraft? I see some fans up there that are meant to push the hot air to the sides of the building, I believe an updraft would be created by the hot lights with or without the fans on

This is brilliant. Your trimming tips are great too. What model would you recommend for a first build?

Genius .

Sounds like you had a surprising weekend. So flying with a tattered plane and being successful means a ham fisted guy like me can build a relatively good flying plane. I’ll have to go back and watch to build vids.

The evening silhouette of the plane reminds me of the cranes here when they circle over my house. Very similar Kind regards Anders Sweden

I wonder if you can get enough people under it if it will thermal inside?

NIIIICE 👌🏻

I’m new to this type of things…please forgive my ignorance. How do you prevent these gliders from running into the ceiling and other obstacles, especially with the propeller driven planes? Do you have some sort of calibration/gauge of how much to wind up the rubber and or how far to pull back on the band for the launching gliders?

Wow can that thing fly.

Josh, how do you manage to shot it straight up high speed and prevent that it starts looping, given that it is trimmed for a slow speed?

I have never lived anywhere that has a facility where indoor flying could take place. so I have never done that. I have been into flying model aircraft a long time, mostly RC glider, designing & building most of my gliders, even flying wing. However, I have never seen any free flight glide launch so vertically, just bunt over into such a stable glide. Obviously you put a lot of work into that but, how in the world do you do that? What are the principles involved in getting that to happen?

Hey Josh i was wondering how you get access to those huge open rooms. Edit: I need your help josh, I used a heat gun on a wing and tightened the mylar too much and now the wing is a little bit twisted. I put some coins on the corners and left it for about 3 days and it got most of it out but some is still there. Has this ever happened to you, and do you have any advice on what to do?

Why so tight on the circles?

🤘🤠

i wonder how much better it would do in straight line flight, considering turning loses energy

Put a rocket motor on it! 😱😝🤪🤣😁👍👍🇺🇲

I didn't realize ground effect went up to 40 feet.

try ultra-light helium balloon wireframe drone/plane, with fan ducts inside the balloon wireframe

Perhaps if you turned less sharply, the plane would stay aloft longer. Turning a plane tends to make it lose altitude because one wing will have less lift than the other. Very impressive though.

stall speed: 0,1 knots

They just slowed the video down

Where are the real men who do hand launch. ..!!??

This video wasn't supposed to make me puke, but it did anyway.

Good morning, I admire your work but I'm very disappointed not to understand your speech because I don't speak English. It would be great to have subtitles on your videos. Cordially. François

I am above 50, why am I watching this?

Way too much talk !

Congrats!
