Thanks John and Mrs W as well I enjoyed this film and the micro Bot so much that 5 minutes after, I found J&H Aerospace web and ordered one, Awesome!!! Please stay safe and best wishes from Alan in South Yorkshire 👍👍🤗🤗❤
Superb as always Sir John! Nice demonstration of the speed range in this video. Last time out seemed gustier on the big hill and you kept the speed up then. I like the way you "waggle" the rudder to maintain position at times. Clever and effective.
Simply Just A Lovely Lil Glider! It's Such A Graceful Design & Flyer, I Own 2- Now, The 1.5M & The Old 3M w/Factory Spoilers Installed Special Edition! Thanks Mate
Very nice John. Looks like you built the larger rudder plan? I'm finishing up a Micro Gentle Lady and thinking about a Micro BoT for the near future. Cheers!
FOUND IT!😁 JUST ORDERED ONE. 👍 I've been wanting this kit since I was a kid and now I think I found the coolest version I have ever seen! Thanks for making a Childhood dream come true Josh!
Give it go. It would probably work well. Plans for the full size Bird of Time are free to download off the Outerzone website. You can just print them out smaller to get the outline.
The Bird of Time is probably a more efficient glider. You need a good bit of lift to get the Bee flying well. Both are fun gliders but bigger gliders always fly better.
@@SlopeRCGliders About size. It seems most small (slope) gliders are either well in the micro range (80-130grams), well the "normal" gliders are easily >350 grams. Are there any nice birds just below the new 250grams rule? Just wondering about how big you can fly without running into rules, permits and restrictions....
@@elmar2B I have a couple of really good light wind fliers that are sub 250g. My CLM pro Trotter is 1.5 meter span but still just under 250g. I also built a West Wing Amethyst which is well under the limit, but flies like a much bigger plane.
I wonder if that would be a good beginner or entry level glider for someone to build and fly. I think a lot of people would love to build and fly like you.
2:47 my favorite flight perspective, dual pirouettes! John this BOT seems a bit twitchy, would that be due to lightness of airframe, wind conditions or that you are slope flying a thermal purpose airframe? I have flown full sized BOT and she's gentle and flies " on the rails". Not criticizing your video in anyway, I'm just naturally courious all things sailplane oriented. Well done John, thanks for sharing!
2 3.5 g servos 300mah lipo battery and a ORX R510v2 light 2.4 GHZ rx is the easiest and cheep way for that size although you can get small gear and lighter, costs more though

J&H Aerospace did a faithful scale of the BOT with Micro BOT
Thanks John and Mrs W as well I enjoyed this film and the micro Bot so much that 5 minutes after, I found J&H Aerospace web and ordered one, Awesome!!! Please stay safe and best wishes from Alan in South Yorkshire 👍👍🤗🤗❤
Brilliant, enjoy the build!
John... Always incredible... I whish one model like these my friend... A hug for you
Depressingly great model, as always! One day you will have to do a build video so that your apprentices can attempt to catch up.
hear hear , I second Zillafun fun; would watch lengthy build videos from John for sure....
Great model plane, nice
Cute! Wasn’t searching for this but TH-cam suggested it. I used to slope soar a lot in the past. I can do this for hours!
At any scale the bird of time is classic. Simply timeless.
The jh bot is nice. Love the color of it.
Chick of Time.
2:18 R/C crash! You won't believe your eyes what happened next!!!!!! Click title sensation!
Looks graceful gliding over the crashing waves like a little seabird 👍😊
Bird of Time, un modelo deseado y pendiente, vuelo placentero y aun en condiciones climaticas poco favorables. Muy lindo te felicito John......
just a beautiful plane, no matter the size!
Classic design in any size. Thanks John
So cool. What an enjoyable life you have. Thanks for sharing.
A bit bumpy ride but always his Master's glider😉.Super as usual!Congrats and cheers !
Skills to fly are awesome. Landscape spectacular
Bird of time is beautiful in every size!
Vintage gold, one of my all-time favourite models
Just like a sheet of paper in the wind, so graceful! 👌
Superb as always Sir John! Nice demonstration of the speed range in this video. Last time out seemed gustier on the big hill and you kept the speed up then. I like the way you "waggle" the rudder to maintain position at times. Clever and effective.
JOHN and the magic string !
i absolutely love it!!!!! such a wonderful model.
That's it gonna buy one now.
Simply Just A Lovely Lil Glider! It's Such A Graceful Design & Flyer, I Own 2- Now, The 1.5M & The Old 3M w/Factory Spoilers Installed Special Edition! Thanks Mate
I think your gliders could soar on a cats fart.
Beautiful place! Nice micro. Good flying. Great video!!!!! Thanks for sharing.
Different backdrop for this one John 👍 You nearly had your eye out as well 😁
I made a 36" version which weighs about 40g with r/c. It's so light it's tricky finding the right conditions to fly it. It's also very tip-stally!
Nice to see the view from the other side of the beach .......... Can't go wrong with a BoT in any size ........... :-)
This is all about soaring, modelling, outdoor sports... what else you can ask for! Thanks for sharing
Beautiful video, LOVED the music. Played it again with my eyes closed. :) 👍
Looks like that model would stay up in a gnat's fart. Seems you were the only one surfing. A rare sight in Cornwall :-)
Magic...Micro Glider😀👍⛵🌠🌠🌠
Very nice John. Looks like you built the larger rudder plan? I'm finishing up a Micro Gentle Lady and thinking about a Micro BoT for the near future. Cheers!
Yup, decided to go for the larger rudder. It’s a great little flier.
Fantastic waves, cant wait until Summer comes, excellent camera work on a midget target!
So cool to see my kit flying so well. Ross did an amazing job designing this downscale!
How can I Get my hands on a kit like this?
I REALLY need to assemble mine! It is a beautiful kit Josh.
FOUND IT!😁
JUST ORDERED ONE. 👍
I've been wanting this kit since I was a kid and now I think I found the coolest version I have ever seen!
Thanks for making a Childhood dream come true Josh!
Very pretty.
Have you ever lost the updraft and lost the glider?...🙂🤗👏👏👏👍🤝
Not yet...
Very nice John, their seems to be a lot of interest in the micro bot. I hope they fly as well as yours. Cheers
What a pretty model. I would like one.
John, just what is needed after a busy week at work. Very relaxing 😀
Just looks further away for some reason 😂
I am going to build this bird out of Foamboard , any thoughts?
Give it go. It would probably work well. Plans for the full size Bird of Time are free to download off the Outerzone website. You can just print them out smaller to get the outline.
a pet BOT is a lifetime commitment
do you have build videos? all your models look great!
Thank you. I’ve never done a build video. I’m always too keen to finish the model and get it flying.
Another good trip with you John....
Dear John, how does this micro compare in terms of pure fun with the micro Lazy Bee you did earlier?
The Bird of Time is probably a more efficient glider. You need a good bit of lift to get the Bee flying well. Both are fun gliders but bigger gliders always fly better.
@@SlopeRCGliders About size. It seems most small (slope) gliders are either well in the micro range (80-130grams), well the "normal" gliders are easily >350 grams.

@@SlopeRCGliders thanks will check them out!
@@SlopeRCGliders any recommandations for higher winds also?
Yet another amazing model
That's pretty :)
Enjoyed the waves in Slow Motion...some canny FPS adjusting going on there....🤔😯😳😀🇬🇧
Nice catch.!!
Beautiful. Thanks
Anyone ever build & fly a Jetco Thermic 50 ? My first big glider .
This looks like it !
New fav!
Fabulous 😁
Wonderful as always. Do you scale down sheet and rib thicknesses on reduced size models? Rib count?
I wonder if that would be a good beginner or entry level glider for someone to build and fly. I think a lot of people would love to build and fly like you.
"Careful, kid. You'll put your eye out with that thing."
I love your planes do you have blueprints available???
Cute. 😊
Taki mały a taki piękny. Też bym go chciał🥰🥰🥰
BOT always had a very cool look but the mini is much cooler! Beautiful flight!
"Micro" 👍

Bigger always flies better. A small light model will get bumped around a lot more more and is less efficient.
Mais belo vôo John, eu pratico o vôo livre.
0:05 - So small ! How do you fit servos & radio in that tiny thing ? How little does this equipment weigh these days ? In my time ...
2 3.5 g servos 300mah lipo battery and a ORX R510v2 light 2.4 GHZ rx is the easiest and cheep way for that size although you can get small gear and lighter, costs more though
@@robertturner8040 : 3,5 gram per servo ?!?
So, magic then ...
is there a kit for this bird, or is it just a scaled down model of the original?
This was a kit from J&H Aerospace
@@SlopeRCGliders ah okay thanks!!
👏👏👏
