Another enjoyable sloping session! I`m very pleased with the performance of this glider, the mini cam mounted on the all moving tailplane made no difference to handling. Thicker gauge wing mount rods will reduce flex and stronger springs/tape to keep wing root butted to the fuselage. Looking forward to flying at our Club field soon!

Superb video Graham. What fantastic visibility up there. Maybe a little wing tape or stronger elastic band is required to hold them big flexi wings on better. Well done, first class video !!
