Taking it Easy RC Glider Slope Soaring - Cairns Bay Australia
October 2024, on a near perfect Saturday afternoon, 26c, smooth and steady 18kph breeze, Mark, Simone and I enjoyed an outing to the beautiful Cairns Bay, Victoria, Australia. A really nice time with relaxing flying.
We are just simple flyers, enjoying a relaxing flight in the beautiful weather.
Mark had two gliders with him:
WIK Modelle H-101 Salto 2.3m
Top Model Prelude 2.5m
Following the launch of Mark's Salto, I got a fright when the model dipped suddenly. Mark was quick on the elevator to level flight and went on to fly for an hour before we all needed a snack.
I flew two flights with my RCRCM DG600. It's the standard non-electric version that I added an electric motor to. It has turned out to be a nice and versatile model for floating about or enjoying some mild speed runs.

F5J competition held at the Victorian Association of Radio Model Soaring (VARMS) field, 2nd March 2024. This event was a practice session for the Australian Team selection. The day was very grey with a persistent SW breeze. The conditions didn’t seem ideal at all, but the pilots produced some great flights catching thermals when I thought it seemed hopeless. I found it really interesting to see...

Launching from a safe high set dome, set well back from the cliff face, the launch location provides a safe flying and landing site.

มุมมอง 238ปีที่แล้ว
First time Slope Soaring in many years, location: Portsea [Victoria] back beach. The hang glider launch site was filled by paragliders, so I headed to another beach for free space. Model: Kyosho F16 Fighting Falcon [late 1990's ARF version]. No ducted fan fitted, just RC gear on board.
