E-Flite UMX ASK-21 Glider Bungee Launch Maiden

[@archivist17]

Thanks Chuck for another great video. I've just bought an ASK-21, and can't wait to get it flown! I love your infectious enthusiasm, which makes for entertaining and inspiring reviews. Respect to Corinne for attempting the impossible tracking of a tiny glider on a bungee.

[@stephaniekent8483]

yes.... good fun.... amazing to see such a tiny well made package and bungee...so much fun and good out of doors exercise too.... well-done Corrine... good effort.... very hard to film tiny white glider yes... she did well :) love it.... bet it slopes well on tight little hills :)

[@rcflyer40plus1]

Neat lil plane

[@MrGrazer05]

Well done Chuck. This will be great off a slope too I think. Looks like a nice bit of kit. Love how portable it is for those opportunistic sessions.

[@giorgiovecchio1784]

Corrine is doing a great job, keep it up!

[@Graiskye]

Corrine did a fine job, cant be easy trying to keep that gem in the viewfinder.

I've only been flying for a few years, but I absolutely love my Radian. It's the best of both worlds!

[@SFarkus]

Wow, looked great! Can't wait to see you tow it up with the Carbon Cub.

Thanks for uploading this video. I just got this little plane a couple weeks ago, but haven't been able to try it out yet. I do have it ready to go so when the weather is nice enough, I'm going for it.

[@ZiaFlyer]

[@Ahkeys82]

cool little glider! Corine is a good sport.

[@AdamDemas]

Thanks so much for this great video. I just got one since they dropped the price to $49. I hope to fly it soon.

Nice little glider and great filming. There is nothing wrong with camera handling. The only problem I have is the same old problem with all the micro's it needs almost no wind and a sunny / calm day to get the best out of them. You want to land that in high/long grass so even if it cartwheel it takes less damage. Can you see it well when it goes up on launch? It is difficult to see it on camera.

[@magneresjuan]

Big Lebowskyi, Nice flight !!!

[@popcorncrow]

would like to see that one.... again... on a sunny, warm day ;-)

[@exoditegrayc]

Great segment, Chuck and Corinne! Thanks for braving those winter winds for us! What part of Australia are you in? I'd like to "google-it-up" on my Mac. Cheers and Best Regards, exoditegrayc

[@dphotos007]

Nice glider. Can I make a suggestion a wireless mic would make you audio shine much better. It would help with any wind noise. Does your camera have an external audio port. Cost of a system is the same cost as a Horizon Hobby plane.

[@magicmike1122]

UMX 777! Hurry up ad come out already!

[@mrwellgun]

Hi chuck ! The umx ask 21 will be soon in France ! :D so I would know if the bungee is in the box ??? Can you give me a response soon please ? ;) thanks a lot for your videos !

[@scottfinnie6467]

i like the look of this but the glide ratio seems awful, ive not seen one video of it staying up for long yet, even in hotter climates, ashame since its so attractive, great video, i enjoy watching them all

[@karl7432966]

@chucktseeker what would be better? the UMX ASK-21 or the Ultra micro spitfire for flying in a small area about 1/3 - 1/2 or maybe less of a size football feild and has an average 5-15 km/h wind. sorry for my bad grammar. English is not my first language

[@mrwellgun]

ok thanks :D ...last question.... did he can do a little bit of "aerobatics" ?

[@rcpilot9963]

What is the max wind speed to fly this little glider?

[@sbs9026]

Chuck, why are you wearing a hat and coat in July for crying out loud !!!! Just Kidding mate - I know that everything is upsidedown in Australia .... Love the Video !!!

[@sethzepplin6270]

So the mic is free then????

[@ilikchez]

well lets tow it with the mig >:)

[@Brados1221]

Too much wind bro? Shoulda found a ridge?

[@P47Thunderbolt41]

I'm thinking about getting this glider but when u launch it with the rubber band do u have to use elevater with the bungee

[@ejcm55]

Cloudy day, no thermals. Flying over grass, no thermals. Even if there was a thermal the wind would blow it away. Go find a slope.

[@hajkomartan]

Take better cameraman...

[@ChuckTSeeker]

sorry can't find one! so i'll stick with my Misses
