What an absolute joy it must have been to be invited to fly such a special glider at the Schleicher test facility. It makes me really smile to see you enjoying the moment, Stefan. Thank you for your wonderful videos!!

Erst mal super Video mit einer lockeren Unterhaltung. Michael und ich fliegen die AS33 Es seit Juni letzen Jahres. Ich als Normalflieger und Michael nur bei Wettbewerben. Der erste Wettbewerb war in Prievizda letzten Jahres. Sein erstes Statement: Wenn ich nicht Erster werde lie gt es nicht an der Maschine. Dann 2022 die Quali in Lachen Speyerdorf und Anfang September den Grand Prix in Vinon. Wir sind Beide absolut begeistert von der Leistung als auch dem sehr gutem Handling. Wir hatten vorher 10 Jahre die ASG 29 und waren auch mit dieser hoch zufrieden. Wir stimmen Stefan voll und ganz zu, dass die AS33 zu den besten 18 Meter Flugzeugen zählt und das Ergebnis an Wettbewerben immer ein Produkt aus Maschine, Pilot und Mannschaft ist. Unsere Maschine ist WN 18 und die Querruderkräfte finden wir absolut ok. Beim Grand Prix zeigte sich, dass die AS33 bei einer Flächenbelastung von 48kg/m2 bei den in Vinon herrschenden Wetterverhältnissen am besten steigt. Überhaupt ist erstaunlich wie gut das dünne Profil arbeitet. Auch bei der höchsten Flächenbelastung von 60kg/m2 fliegt sich die Maschine sehr gut und steigt auch gut. Sehr gut finden wir eine Vielzahl von kleineren Verbesserungen. Die umlegbare Kopfstütze, der integrierte Tank mit elektrischer Spritpumpe, die Motorsteuerung, die Anordnung der Seitenruderpedale und viel weitere Kleinigkeiten. Das Cockpit bietet auch Platz für kräftigere Personen. Auch sehr gut, dass die Fläche dank der neuen Entlüftung mit vollen Wassertanks abgelegt werden kann. Da kann am Grid noch vor dem Start die Flächenstütze schon verräumt werden. Sehr gut für die Helfer.

This is an amazing aircraft: it climbs well, cruises quickly and is extremely stable. Its various electrical systems make operating the glider really easy. It seems to me to be a championship winning aircraft. You're so lucky to fly this incredible glider: I've never flown anything like it, but then AS has a long history of making world beating aircraft. Thank you for sharing this experience with us. 😀

I only fly in Microsoft flight simulator and although it is as yet not glider friendly,a genius has modelled the AS33ME and its very good.Because thermals do not exist in the sim yet,I like to ridge soar and the included wind direction indicator is very useful.Also the sustainer is powerful enough to allow takeoffs and I really enjoy flying it.Thermals and gliders won't be available 'till the end of this year.....................................................

As the distance between the cockpit and the ground is so small, I wonder if this increases the probability of scratches there during an outlanding or even on a grass runway if the tail is elevated due to uneven surface encountered by the tailwheel.
@SteFly

Probably slightly more than the ASG29. On an airfields it won't be a problem and with the propulsion you should avoid out landings 😅 I wouldn't care too much.

I didn't try to fly extremely slow at this point because I was distracted by filming and watching what was happening. As you can see in this video also with 600 kg you can fly 90 kph without any problems. I only made a timelapse of the rigging process. Not a big difference to the ASG29.

The empty weight with batteries is about the same. The advantage of the AS33 Me is that the max takeoff weight is not limited for the electric self-launch and you have more space in the baggage compartment. Of course the removable batteries in the JS3 RES have their advantage, also for competition flying with only one battery pack. It would be interesting to see the difference in climb performance.

I wonder if an electric motor powered by super capacitors would work for the motor. They would be lightweight, and capable of short strong bursts of power. There would be no heavy batteries on board. You would be extremely limited on number of runs though.. What do you think is the average number of uses per flight? (extreme ballpark)They have made many advances in capacitor technology recently, maybe it's possible?🤔
