Vertigo F5J low level thermal training.

Fit and finish look really, really good. Looks well balanced and the handling seems spot on. Great job, Ali!!!

Кто сказал что он управляется хорошо и для кого?

[@davidshaw7505]

Wish I could afford one. Looks fabulous

David Shaw you can get plans for a built up balsa/carbon Bubble Dancer by Mark Drela. You would get 90% of the performance of this incredible F5J ship, for 20% of the cost. As a bonus, you get to spend some quality time building a fantastic glider that can be enjoyed for decades, if properly cared for.

I am starting to appreciate soaring more, it is as zen as hotlining, maybe even more so as you are always on the edge. My best soaring plane is a NAN Orion, basically NAN's hot rod... basically a NAN-spec aerobatic sailplane with too much power. I typically run a 4S 2200 mAh down to 3.75v in 1min of power on (in a good number of short bursts). I used to get ~10-12 mins of flight with this per min of battery, now I average 22-25 mins by slowing down and looking for lift. My best is 43 mins of flight for 1:13 mins battery, basically lucked into a giant thermal but took the time to slow down and ride it. Anyhoo...this video has me seriously wanting to look harder at F5J... that my friend looks like a ton of fun! The Orion would be down on the ground pronto, this is a whole new level of float. With control (great job!).

Главное в f5j взлететь не выше 70 метров Отлетать 15 минут и посадить к ногам планер.

[@KetilDuna]

Nice video, thanks for sharing. Some nice lifts there

[@raymond4191]

[@rapharigoti]

Fantastic!! Thanks for sharing!

[@towitowi1]

Wow!!! Fenomenalne loty. Dobry pilot o model, zazdroszczę ;)

[@jimmywilliams8684]

Sooo cool! Thanks for the slow passes and thermal hunting. I'm still learning. Came from the gentle lady days. Got to turbines and now just love the carbon 1-3m gliders like this. So peaceful but crazy fast when you want.

[@ВоваИванов-г5с]

Как успехи за 2 года?

[@ceradinimp]

Amazing flying, you really have that plane dialed in!

[@mwales2112]

Very nice, well done...

[@ronaldwitt2533]

Excellent flight...beautiful plane

[@phil36135]

Very impressive.

[@IROCZ28PHOENIX]

All carbon yes?

[@samseiv4580]

Hello everyone, can anyone tell me where I can buy drawings for the f5j model? Thanks for the help.

[@alpenjon]

Amazing

[@adamchambers5599]

no chance of some actual advice or set up tips?

[@dennisrkb]

nice rendering

[@steveh.9170]

wowzers, 2000.00 glider!!!

[@GatorGlider]

Solid core?

[@babygorillamedia2328]

Of course;-)

[@Mateyhv1]

Of core ;-)

[@johnchamp849]

I want one!,

[@iforce2d]

ffs just hold the camera in your hand instead of goofing around with the fancy gimbal or whatever

[@arelysisabelmorales6623]

Cuanto cuestan eso aviones

[@Adrian14mz]

Very Bad camera Work.

[@flightcomp]

I agree

[@ozjohnno]

WOW.... JUST WOW, the last I Flew gliders, it was a 'gentle lady' 2m polyhedral wing with a 2CH Futaba radio (FM of course) that cost me most of a weeks paycheck (remember the old FM peg boards). I also liked throwing stuff off a slope. Im thinking about getting back into it. I like the idea of DLG or F3K (if I am feeling lazy). Now I am older and have more CASH F5J looks pretty cool to, but reckon I would need to put in some time on smaller cheaper models. IS an F5J easy to fly?? What would you advise?
