I didn’t realise free flight could be like this - keeps you fit as a flea though! Great looking plane and very well flown. Thanks for sharing.

[@1freedlander]

That was a workout (for the cameraman also). Thanks for a very good demonstration of flying. Well edited and well filmed!

[@binbagflyer]

Brilliant video - you make it look so easy. Which shows how good you are!

[@ccv3237]

Much engineering, and experience demonstrated at its best!

[@wordreet]

Wow! I'm liking this idea. I'm just starting with RC flight, but have been making and flying kites for many years, so this looks very nice to me. I must investigate!

[@marklinofsweden]

Awesome stuff!

goood model

[@rscarawa]

That was pretty cool. NEver seen anything like it. How long do models last? I assume you have to catch them when they are in detherm mode?

[@aviramschreibman1032]

Scot Caraway you dont have to catch them at all, they are built to withstand the force of dethermalization, in fact launching the plane takes around 20 kilos of force for a fairly mid launch, which is much higher then the forces in dethermalization, in terms of how long models last its a question of whos is the guy flying.

[@pixeldixelshizel]

sorry for the OT but is this taken by a GoPro HD camcorder?

[@bzjunior1708]

Very nice flight, and the music is superb. Who is the performer?

[@AsohoVidaho]

I guess it´s Per Findahl

[@kenfong6373]

I didnt know you can fly a glider like a kite!!

[@Zelibobka]

It’s Per Findal
