Parts list Foam Glider from The Works cost me £3 Unlikely to still be available from there - similar available from other locations WLTOYS V911 2.4GHz RC Receiver - no longer available - most people seem to use the F949 instead FlySky FS-T6 Transmitter - still available but most people would probably buy the FS-i6 now
The highstart video is scheduled for the 19th. It took me a while to sort out an issue with the small parachute I have on the end of my bungee line. Once fixed we see an instant improvement and then the remaining problems are down to the poor piloting skills 😝
Great job Grandpa !! Flies perfect and the flight time is so good !! What about putting a hook underneht the fusselage and with the help of rubber line and a ring at the end...it would help it to get a higher atitude and at the moment it snap off the hook the plane start gliding!! This sistem is commoun in GÜNTER FLUGSPIELE gliders !! What do you think? See you in another video!!
@@lewismcgarry1349 pretty sure I was using a 1S liIon to give it a bit of nose weight. You will find the playlist for this project in the video description 👍

Hi,seriously awesome flight test,just magnificent,
I was pleased to get it in the air 😁
Hey great job!
Thank you
Good job, flies great and a valid reason for being late.
The better something flies, the more I realise I am no good at flying. As long as I don't touch the controls it does fine 😆👍
Great stuff. Looking forward to seeing more.👍👍👍
🙂
Great success!
It would be handy if I knew how to fly an RC aircraft 😆

This one’s a nice flier! I’d like to see it with a high-start launch! Good work. :)

Sounds good. I’ll be on the lookout for that video. :)
Wow that's an improvement
Thanks Tommy. I did quite a few videos with this roject. Here is the playlist th-cam.com/play/PLA5a2xPRSrB3z16nxV6u2zRtUoqgIqtr9.html
Awesome thank you
@@starfoxnerd88 thanks for watching and commenting 😁
Looking more favourable, try an elasticated powered propeller.
The project is to convert it to a radio controlled glider👍👍

You will see that in a later video, there are a few more to come including slope, catapult, and highstart/bungee 😊👍👍
@@GrandadIsAnOldMan wow I can't wait! 😀
Specs?
I only wear them for reading. Check the pinned comment.
@@GrandadIsAnOldMan I meant battery size

Your throwing it wrong. If you throw it straight up vertically you will get a way longer glide.
I guess you had better buy one and do a video to show what you mean 👍👍
@@GrandadIsAnOldMan I've just watched an American guy do it. Throw it ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️
@@jfkj1695 so you haven't tried it yourself?
Salut
🙂
