DON'T LAUGH AT ME!!! Learning DLG

Massive thanks to Didier and Luuk for at least trying to show me how to properly launch a DLG (Discus Launched Glider) into the stratosphere! Even if the video was cut short due to the DLG imploding!!

This is hands down my favourite form of model flying. It's so relaxing once you get it, and you can always add some weight and fly aerobatics in a breeze.

[@stuartwarnerc]

Hey that’s my old CX5, glad to see it being put to such good use! Nice video gents. Good seeing you all at PW24

[@danielb4118]

Please more videos like this. I am starting learning to launch my first dlg. I hope not to broke at first launch. Already make single taxing and it flies great so far.

[@Shock_96]

Great to see you challenge yourself with other branches of our fantastic hobby! I've seen you at ProWing but was a little to shy to approach you... 😶‍🌫️

[@MartinPickering-PickeringRC]

Dude! I dont bite! I am in this for the fun, as you hopefully saw in this video! Make sure to say hi next time!

[@Flyingfinn0]

[@zeno6111753]

Nice video, greetings !

[@gravityfuzz]

@Martin. You will be an amazing DLG flyer.

[@rolfingerbier]

DLG is amazing. I have two of them. I'm not a pro, but the experience is incredible.

[@Optimiser113]

Very cool

[@John_Dumont]

Heyyyyy thats my friend Luuk, met him on the multiplayer function of realflight 9.5. Hes such a good pilot🙌🏻

[@CyclingMikey]

I fly a load of DLG in UK competitions. I'm not particularly good but I do OK. I love the challenge of using the air to stay up and to try to outfly the rest of the group.

[@MartinPickering-PickeringRC]

Its super addictive!!

[@jdsd_]

Hey mate, i wanna buy a 1,5m DLG as well, can you tell me what the best brands are when it comes to build quality and flying characteristics? There are quite a few out there and i dont wanna waste my money :D

[@CyclingMikey]

@@jdsd_ The most popular seem to be BAMFs, Vortex 4s and CX5s.

[@neilsreal]

Never seen these before, video has made me want one now lol looks like so much fun.

[@MartinPickering-PickeringRC]

They sure are!

[@rjung_ch]

Cheers 👍💪✌

[@ficosk8]

Buen día Martin! You had a lot of punch already in the beginning. I have seen this just a couple of times live at our field in south east Bavaria and was looking for a cheap one the beginn one day. It looks really enjoying! :D

[@blakelove4058]

Man that looks fun. I wish I was able to try it. But sadly I cant, I'm in a wheel chair. I mostly mess with flat 3d foamies now.

[@jasperstempelsfotografie3643]

Haha....nice work Didier.

[@geoffreyvanvugt8179]

Great vid 😂😂😂😂

[@ficosk8]

But that FMS Futura 64mm in yellow with the girl in the back is addictive too :D :D Brought me totally into jets xD

[@joelpetersen2480]

I'm not laughing. I'm listening, watching and learning.

[@aussiedigger1441]

A DLG is the fastest plane out there in the right conditions! Look up the world's fastest DLG it's truly amazing.

[@stomptheelites]

Good luck finding anything. Everything under $500 is SOLD OUT, everywhere, Prove me wrong.😎

Always amazing how high DLG’s can be propelled to. Also amazing how strong DLG’s are. Think you did really well. Would love to see what height an olympic discus champion could manage. Interesting video.

[@nielssteigenga]

Gaaf Didier! Leuk om te zien man.
