Flying 130km from Martinsell Hill
มุมมอง 1952 ปีที่แล้ว
On Thursday 2nd June 2022 James Chancellor and I flew from Martinsell Hill, Wiltshire 130km north to Kidderminster. In the first section of the flight we had to crosswind by 7km to avoid the Jubilee NOTAM that came into force at 12:50. Getting out of the airspace with a few minutes to spare we then headed north towards out goal in Shrewsbury. Eventually we landed in Kidderminster not thinking g...

Visited the Annecy area from the 22nd to the 29th of August 2021 to see my brother (flying the other red Maestro) and a few friends. First time flying in the mountains was a great experience and a steep learining curve! Started out the week with a short flight around Annecy on Day 1 and a mini tour of the lake on Day 2. On Day 4 we started a small Vol Bit trip from Annecy to Montlambert. On Day...

103km XC Worcester Beacon - Phi Maestro
มุมมอง 1783 ปีที่แล้ว
Sunday 2nd of May 2021 we headed to the Malvern Hills and took off from Worcester Beacon. After a rough take off and climb out we reached over 6000ft feet in a blue hole before pressing on over the M5. For the first 30km we flew together, but then separated. In the middle of the flight the cloud cover increased and it became very tough to stay up. Fortunately near Banbury I found a good climb w...

On the third day of the Malverns trip we drove into Wales and to The Blorenge outside Abergavenny. There were light winds with thermals creating strong gusts.

One of the videos I keep coming back to - beautiful!
Beautiful location and perfect skills, thanks for sharing
Awesome. Launching from so low was inspiring. The music was great. Keep it coming.
Wicked video Unfortunately dreadful music
Looked like fun!
The Dream .. gotta love such great heights!
Fantastic!
Beautiful! 😁
Wow what another spectacular flight and with your buddy James also. 👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
Thanks! First time we have managed to stick together for the majority of the flight. It was much easier flying together than alone!
@@twycherley Yeah, that was an awesome flight ! :) loved the "Bravo !" at the end there haha :D Makes my wee Dyke to Home seem like such small potatoes :D Well done mate
Amazing views 👊🏼
at last !! ... a decent tune ! :D :D :D
Hi Thomas Have you changed the risers? the serial ones do not include the handles in the C.
Hi Isaac. The Phi R07 risers are fitted in this video and they have a rear riser speed control system (B/C).
@@twycherley yes but do you change the risers? Where did you buy?
@@isaacbuenobadiola9709 yes I have changed the risers. I bought them from FlyBubble in the UK but I'm sure there will be a dealer wherever you are
@@twycherley is it worth the change?
@@isaacbuenobadiola9709 I would say so! Gives a lot more control when using the speed system. The only downside is the handles can get tangled on lines when on launch.
Great video, really cool. I have to ask, what are you doing with the C risers at about 4:20?
Thanks. Whilst using the speed system pulling back on the rear risers can give some control over the speed and direction of the wing. However without a B/C link system it is not very effective. If you watch one of my more recent videos you can see the B/C system in action.
the mating dance at 2:45 was lovely. We look forward to seeing the offspring. :) only joking, great video!
i like your break style,so smooth😍
Great flying! I have same wing but wanted to ask about your riser setup, is it worth to upgrade from standard option?
I really like the R07 risers, still getting used to the B/C connection but definitely improves confidence of control on speed bar.
@@twycherley Nice. Thank You. My original risers are getting a bit worn out so I guess I will try to improve.
thanx for sharing
Awesome keep doing
How do you like the Maestro? Thinking about moving up from my Ion 5, and the Maestro is currently my top candidate.
Loving it so far. I have not got a huge amount of experience and have not flown a huge variety of wings but compared to my previous Buzz Z4 it is much more dynamic, responsive and fun to fly. The general glide ratio and effectiveness of the speed bar is great.
nice, you are left handed pilot , right ??
I'm right handed but prefer to thermal to the left if that is what you are asking?
Well done m'dude !! :) This is worth a watch too :) th-cam.com/video/IslF_EyhMzg/w-d-xo.html
Congratulations Tom - looks like a tightly knit gaggle you were flying with... did you land together or split up - would be good to know who some of the other pilots were....well done & cheers - RJ
Thanks Rodney! We were together at first but I fell behind at the 30km mark and flew quite a lot on my own! I was flying with Andrew K and Ash B at the start and they made it about 80km. Because I was slower I was able to stay in the good weather which allowed me to overtake once the others had landed.
Awesome flight dudes !! ... Like I said earlier.... you guys are getting good !! :)
Do I get a prize for being your One Hundred and First subscriber ? :D :D :D Anyhow, never mind Phi Maestro we'll have to start calling you Tom Maestro !! :) Nice video of a great flight dude, shame about the gay bar music though ...... ;)
I'm gaining a bad reputation for flying in strong conditions so Will suggested "Top End Tom"
@@twycherley ... haha, different from Damon's suggestion of Bitch ! :D But yeah, I think I might have a similar reputation too ... How about Gusty Incident Tom ? :D :D :D
@@freezatron Any of those suggestions are fine with me!
@@twycherley .. haha yeah, especially if you can keep on getting to cloud base as easily as you do ;) :D
Very nice dude!
Lovely flying, have a good year
