Hi all, I've been flying casually for a couple years with some foamy yank and bank planes and also build and fly helis and other multi rotors.

Last summer I got into gliders and love it, is just so different and relaxing.

I currently have a Radian Pro electric 2m glider and a Vladimir models Elf mini DLG. I love the simplicity of the DLG, and flying it is very satisfying compared to everything else that needs the battery swapping after a few minutes.

See you out there!

Welcome !

If you like gliders and not swapping batteries you should be setting yourself the target of keeping the Radian Pro up for 1 hour on 1 battery, it will improve your thermal hunting no end  8-)

Ha, yeah I've tried but only managed about half an hour.

Not sure my neck would last any longer though
