Well worth the effort and a nice hour of so up on the hill as it had been a while!
Slope Soaring Sussex is a friendly group of RC glider flying enthusiasts based in Sussex, UK.

We fly many types of RC gliders from conventional slope soarers to Scale, DLG, F3B, F3J, F5J, PSS and more. Our aim is to encourage and promote safe, responsible and enjoyable radio controlled model flying. New and experienced flyers welcome.

Sunday PM at Firle
Ian and myself had a quick blast at Firle Beacon this afternoon. We were expecting light conditions but the wind turned out to be a lot stronger than I was expecting. Ian had his Jedi and I had my light wind Expro. I should have taken along something a lot heavier but I enjoyed dodging the bloody Paragliders who thought it was OK to bumble past us 50' above the hill. Ian showed them how a fast F3F could perform as it ate up the sky at speed.
Well worth the effort and a nice hour of so up on the hill as it had been a while!
