  • Hyperlapse of a classic paragliding flight along the scenic route from Fiesch over the Grimsel, Furka, Oberalp and Bielerhöhe Passes. Personally I love one way flights, going with the wind as far as you can and see where you end up!
    The flight was done on the 26.06, a day before Chrigel Maurer did his magic move along the same route during the 2021 X-Alps in similar conditions. The flight starts with classic one way conditions and I could keep a good pace until Flims, then things slowed down a bit and ultimately it overdeveloped, forcing me to land early.

    Ok, this is surreal--
    When you flew past Bielerhöhe, I was wondering why that name was so familiar. So I went back over that part of the flight.
    I have literally stood on the peak that you climbed a thermal over -- almost every summer from 2013 to 2018 I stayed in the Saarbrücker Hütte right at the foot of the Kleiner Litzner with groups of international students, hiking up to all those peaks accessible from the hut including the one you thermal over--
    You're literally flying just a couple hundred feet above one of my favorite places in the world!
    I'm continually astonished to see you flying over places in Switzerland that I've only seen from foot or bike; really fascinating change of perspective...
    (OK I'm done fanboying but it's really exciting to see this stuff and say "Hey! That's my place!!!)

    Hey Sebastian, really cool videos! Just got my license a couple of days ago and I aspire to fly like you some day in the future 😃! I think your videos will help me improve over the years. I would love a video on your set-up (glider, harness, instruments other useful stuff) and experience what works well etc.
    Cheers and happy landings

      I'm not too gear prone, as instrments I use my phone and a XC Tracer mini. I can recommend a peeing tube for longer flights! Also I wear big mittens to keep my fingers warm. Hope that helps!

    Servus Seb, a great flight and a great video once again. I guess you agree with me, for flights like this you need good weather and thermal forecast tool. Which tool do you use? How do you recognize a good XC day? Thanks in advance for your answer.

    • @sebastianbenz5336
      @sebastianbenz5336  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That would be an entire video on its own! I use the cosmo model from meteoschweiz. For the wind i look at the 800m above ground map, cloud and rain are nicely represented in the map and for the thermals i look at the previ temps. Whatever forecast you use, it is important to consistently look at it and compare it to the actual conditions, so you can learn what it means when the forecast says this or that...

    Super Flug Sebastian.
    Vielleicht kannst du mir ein paar Fragen beantworten, die ich mir leider nicht selber mit Datenblättern oder anderen Reviews habe beantworten können.
    Glaubst du es wäre möglich die Zeitrafferfunktion zu nutzen und trotzdem einigermaßen ähnliche Resultate zu erzielen damit ich Akku und Speicherplatz sparen kann?
    Deine Vorgehensweise mit Dauer-Videos und extra Powerbank ist für mich leider nicht ganz praktikabel da ich die Kamera primär auch auf meinen Mehrtages Biwaktouren mitnehmen will und dabei zu sehr bei der Stromversorgung eingeschränkt bin.
    Ich frage insbesondere wegen des Postprocessings: Sind aufeinander folgende Zeitrafferbilder auch bei bewegter Kamera um die Hochachse stabilisiert? Also so, dass die Bilder in diesselbe Himmelsrichtung schauen.
    Stimmt es, dass 3s das kleinstmögliche Intervall ist?
    (Die Videos wären bei 30fps Wiedergabe noch etwas schneller als deine, was vielleicht grenzwertig wird.)
    Auch wenn du keine Zeit zum Antworten hast, wünsch ich dir weiterhin gute Flüge und freue mich schon aufs nächste Video von dir.

    • @sebastianbenz5336
      @sebastianbenz5336  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hallo Tom,
      Ich habe es mal versucht, aber es sieht recht "abgehackt" aus und die Stabilisierung ist auch nicht optimal. Bis jetzt habe ich keine Lösung gefunden mit der man die Powerbank/Datenmenge umgehen könnte. Gruss
