Archaeopteryx All-in-one

English:
The Archaeopteryx is a high-end rigid wing hang-glider in sailplane configuration. It is an extremely thermally sensitive aircraft, with which long range flights can be carried out - even with weak up-currents. It has the turning radius of a paraglider and the sink-rate of a high performance sailplane. The Archaeopteryx aircraft is very versatile, simple to rig and to fly and has very safe flight characteristics.
Deutsch:
Der Archaeopteryx ist ein High-end Starrflügel-Hängegleiter in Segelflugzeugkonfiguration. Ein absolut thermikstarkes Fluggerät, mit welchem sich auch bei schwachen Aufwinden ausgedehnte Flüge unternehmen lassen. Kreisradien wie ein Gleitschirm, Sinkleistung wie ein Hochleistungssegelflugzeug. Das Fluggerät Archaeopteryx ist besonders vielseitig, es ist einfach zu montieren und zu fliegen und weist eine allgemein sehr sichere Flugcharakteristik auf.
Français:
L’Archaeopteryx est un planeur de pente, catégorie « vol libre », à aile haute rigide. Totalement adapté au vol dans les thermiques, il spirale à basse vitesse tel un parapente dans de faibles ascendances tout en étant capable, par sa finesse, de vols de distance tel un planeur de haute performance. L’Archaeopteryx est un engin polyvalent, simple à monter et à piloter. Ses caractéristiques de vol sont d’une manière générale très sûres.

OMG, the way that propeller folds in as it stop to reduce drag when it isn't needed is just brilliant.

[@wingnutzster]

If I could put into words just how closely this concept parallels the single focus of my life's passion/obsession I would. I'm close now, thanks for leading the way!

[@nasondeaux441]

What about now

[@user-dv5yt9yc9x]

Anything that makes a landing at low safe speeds is always very interesting.

[@janmuylllaert4266]

really appreciate there's no commercial adds with this video.

Finally! An airplane you can wear!

Good thing ...... too did you see the price ? It's over priced. You won't be able to buy pants after buying one of these.

Its really awesome

This is the WINNER of the sweetest , cutest, highest performing and having all the comedy attached GLIDER OF THE CENTURY. Flintstones, Rubber Bungee Launch, the BEST POSSIBLE Tech, Folding ... keep going on with the features. MY VOTE IS IN! WINNING

[@Leonardokite]

Totally incredible. After watching your other video I watched this one and I thought, at least it’s modular so you can easily replace parts. Then you go into the power mode. You can take off on wheels and you can land on wheels. Sweet. Then the added winch tow, aerotow, and bungee launch on a ridge! Now, add in an incredible 49 foot turning radius, and yikes what a machine! But yet there’s more, a ballistic parachute system! Then the near sailplane performance and it’s pretty hard to beat.

I am so envious. I wish they'd had things like this when I was still young. In my day hang gliding was something that had a 50/50 chance of working. But, that was only if everything was perfect!

[@RobertoAlvarado-ok6kq]

What a privilege to be a pilot ! it really is.

[@xaweg47]

If I ever have enough money, this is the first thing I'll buy...

[@bdgrandin]

Wow. That is awesome. I love the version with the electric take off.

[@sourkraut6248]

You go up. Fly around in circles and land. Fascinating.

[@rjhinnj]

The most advanced footlauchable sailplane ever conceived! Spectacular design and performance. Engineered with versatility to perfection. This kind of advanced aircraft is not cheap. I bet the trailer adds another $10k to the price tag. But you’d need it for this delicate and airplane. If this could be mass produced, the cost would come way down. But it is such a select group of folks who would be interested… it’s like the Maserati of hang gliders!! Bravo to all involved in its development. I hope it comes with some Swiss chocolates … 😉👍

[@etravix]

The ultimate personal aircraft. I want one. Thanks for sharing.

[@angargoy7181]

If you are the creator and designer of this beautiful aircraft, my congratulations from Spain

[@justusgronts3882]

saw this when it was being developed many years ago, wanted one then. Definitely be the very first toy I buy if lotto numbers ever work for me.

[@user-sf9pq5ox7w]

It's just the sheer feeling of flying is Amazing

[@sivakkumarkumar1576]

All in one is real innovation... never seen before...three cheers!

[@SH-kn7ut]

This is a really nice set up. I have a sailplane license and while it's a lot of fun flying high performance sailplanes, I like the hang glider- like characteristics of this plane. Landing with your feet...the open version of this plane strikes me as the most interesting option. It's all a trade-off I suppose. Flying this plane like a regular glass sailplane would probably just make me wish I was in a higher performance sailplane. But as a hang glider, I don't think it can be beat!

[@thesecretpolyglot7652]

Amazing.... Cheers from Brazil 🇧🇷

[@dashnormerhadi9594]

if i had one i would jump from the third floor of my house and fly to school ...😂

[@3raciadesur-lara477]

excellent very ingenious glider I really congratulate all those people worldwide who provide an invention for humanity, thanks to this invention I could develop something similar, it is very difficult to do it here in our country venezuela but it is not impossible, if I achieve that goal I will give all the data and specifications by this means so that people have access to the information.

[@littlebaw]

Great my neighbor friend, I'm from Guatemala and when you get something done please share your insight so we can fly as well!

[@DFX2KX]

There's a similar aircraft avaible as plans (and made out of spruce and doped fabric, which is easy-ish to work with) called the ULF-1. making a man sized glider in your garage isn't impossible, but making one that flies well is very hard. The internet has lots and lots of information (in every conceivable language to boot) about aerodynamics, so you'd want to read up on it.

[@daianerviti3563]

[@iansmith5425]

Absolute genius of a design. More affordable gliding and without a lot of the hassle.

[@saleplains]

its insanely expensive unfortunately. i dont understand why they cost so much. 10x more expensive than a decent hangglider and several times more expensive than a used full size sailplane. very neat craft though just doesnt seem sensible. on top of that because it doesnt breakdown as compactly as a hangglider its really just as much hassle and most other sailplanes.
