All the best!
That's not fair.... I live in boring The Netherlands.
That's awesome man. You should have walked up the dune a bit and done some slope soaring.
Watch the very end, I did 😎😀🏔️✈️
@@PhilipBooysen Ah very cool. 😎
I can see myself doing the body spin and chucking the remote controller into the air and then try to fly soaring remote control with the plane. Just saying.
I can get similar flight times on a still day land locked without thermals due to the Alulas forward swept wing design, it just grabs the air and does not want to descend, just glide.
Stunning! Absolutely beautiful! Wow! One of your best videos for sure...
Baie nice Phillip
man dit lyk te lekker.
Brilliant job, guys! Very impressive. From whom did you receive permission at the CAA to send up the balloons and glider?
Wow Philip, the music is awesome and adds so much to the experience!! I love how the details of music and video match. Keep it up 👍
Awesome Achim. So much fun flying as well as capturing the whole experience. Appreciate your support.
Incredible. Great work and great precision execution!!
Just shows how small this world is and how we should be good neighbors to each other around this planet!
Amazing feat! Well done guys! We are trying to do something similar but from Mauritius. Would you be able to help us please?
Excellent, it was lots of fun! What have you guys done so far? Tried something at much smaller scale? Have kit? Have someone in Mauritius you can team up with regarding a certain area so as to stand on the shoulders of giants? We also failed at first and learned and played with smaller scenarios before having success. What info would help you?
good job
Cool Vid
Very nice video. Do you guys still meet up there? If so how often? Might like to join after I get some new bits for my Quadcopter.
Well done guys! Just watched this on a bus between Oxford and London and now properly homesick dude! An awesome achievement - gonna link this to our uk Fpv forum - show the boys how it's done! Subbed you guys - visit my channel - Soutie FPV in the UK :)
Hi Phil nice effort please keep in touch , if I can help with any composite stuff just shout. Mike M
Six balloons? cool. How did you prevent the rope rubbing other balloons?
wooooooooooo!!!
perfect landing but why use balloons if plane can take off from ground then come back to you with telemetry
um..... "high altitude"
nailed the landing!
Nice vid, but please............please.........put a brushless gimball on there. The motion sickness took a while to go away in order to type this LOL
LOL ... yeah, had to fix that, baby steps. Same location, but this time around with my brushless gimbal installed : Quadcopter Fun Fly - Johannesburg Botanical Gardens
This is epic! Proud of you guys!
Congratulation guys ! Wonderful launch and glider landing ! What about higher altitude of glider release ? :-) Radim OM2AMR from stsproject dot net
Excellent!
Well done - that is awesome! And it was a superb day...
Very nice!, Well done with this video.5 Stars!
