Hi RICH AND STEVE. GREAT VIDEO I LOVED THE BACKGROUND ACTIVITY 👍 VERY COOL. THIS GLIDER IS INTERESTING ME LOVING THE WAY ITS DISMANTLES ABLE TO GO BACK IN THE BOX. ALSO SHE FLYS AMAZING. SUCH A RELAX FLIGHT. THANKYOU FOR POSTING AND THANKS FOR FILMING STEVE. TAKE CARE AND HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT WEEK 🇬🇧 RC INFORMER 🇺🇸💯♥️🕊️✌️
The blended winglets basically reduce drag by reducing the size of the vortex generated at the wing tip by making the transition or spill, of the high pressure air under the wing less, as it spills upward to the low pressure air on the top of the wing:) This increases flight time, extends range, reduces fuel burn:)
Very proffessional, good to listen to no filler or waffle. Sold it on me going to buy one because of this. In UK so can't buy from link. Well done and thank you
Thanks Patrick for your support-we are going to be having a big website update over the coming weeks and I should be able to provide all of you overseas outside of the US with Channel support links for most things-it’s quite a big job so it’s taking a bit of time to get through but in the meantime thanks for the support watching the videos liking and sharing etc it all helps out at the end of the day👍
Perfect Plane for Howling Wind! Great starter will hook many Flyers on the Gliding habit. Beauty Rich, first touch n go move with a Glider on RUclips, Ahahhahha!
Hi I recently bought the szd 54 , on the reciever where does the single pin connector ( that's attached to throttle wire ) go. ? Hope your able to respond and help me. Regards Andi
hey rich would putting 2 extentions on the ycable coming from the rx make it any easier with more slack to put the wings on. is there room to tuck them in once the wings are on? just wondering
Hi Rich! I have a NX8 / AR8020T receiver. I would like to have altitude/vario and battery telemetry. What do I have to buy in order to have this information in my radio? Thanks for the great videos !!
I transport the plane with one wing off. I put short servo extensions on the aileron and flap connectors to make it easier to get the wires into the fuse.
Great video, thank you for actually doing some gliding. No one else seems to do that with glider reviews. Nice model but you lost me with all those wires in the connecting. That is so 2015.
Actually they are quite similar but im not really the best person to give pro’s and Con’s on Gliders simply because i simply don’t fly them often enough to be able to give a detailed list-that being said the both fly extremely well, the FMS is obviously higher quality in some respects but both are great model’s that fly fantastic🙂
Yes, sorry about that we stopped posting on Twitter a few months ago-we will be updating everything to remove the link to Twitter but we have a few videos to get through too 🙂
you really should stop leaving your plane sit on the runway while you adjust your radio, cause i wouldn't wait for you if i needed to land , that is just rude! Just like when you got upset at the turbine guy for firing up, hello it an rc field not your personal field for making your video. just facts to live by.
@davidmanciero5465 I decided to get my own field instead:) Problem solved. Additionally, I did not get upset, I made note of it. So I can't get a few minutes of quiet to do some filming for one flight? That's too much to ask? Really? One flight? We mostly wait for others to finish their flights. However, most don't know or care what we are doing & have no regard for us... We wait around for others to finish & when we fly others fire up their loud models & our audio is hard to hear.

I love my SZD-54. It grabs whatever thermal activity exists and just goes up, up, up with one notch of flaps.
Thanks for explaining the advantage for wing tips. I learn more about the hobby when I watch your videos.

Your audio is coming through loud and clear, and the turbine sound ROCKS!
just ordered mine. thanks for a great review.
Great review Rich ! Looks super easy to assemble.
Awsome video Rich! And the background noise didn't bother me at all. Your mic was perfect even with the background noise.
Perfect Plane for Howling Wind!
Great starter will hook many Flyers on the Gliding habit.
Beauty Rich, first touch n go move with a Glider on RUclips, Ahahhahha!
SHE HAND LAUNCHES REALLY GOOD 👍

Don't do anything with it. It may be a reverse wire but it is not needed
hey rich would putting 2 extentions on the ycable coming from the rx make it any easier with more slack to put the wings on. is there room to tuck them in once the wings are on? just wondering
Yea, that would work.. good idea!
Thanks for the great video. Would this be a good glider for a brand new pilot?
Sorta, but you would need to have some flying experience
@@RCINFORMER That's the problem....trying to find a club and someone to help get me started. Still looking!
@stevecarr323 Do you have a local hobby shop? You could ask.? If not, contact the AMA!
Great job as usual Richard👍👍👍👍
Rich nicely done. Which do you prefer the SZD or the Radian? I find this plane drops a wing a bit too easy
Not sure yet, I will be getting my radian out of the box very soon!
Nothing more enjoyable than a turbine and gasser at the same time! At the field assembly is a cool idea brother!
Hey Victor! Sometimes we just have to go with what we got:)
"Spars" that run along the length of the fuselage are called longerons and stringers
Looks like they've taken the Volantex style of glider to the next level. Too bad the wing servo connectors aren't the simple plug in design.
Looks way way better than the over priced, old design Night Radian.
Rich, so far because of your work, I bought and enjoyed the Husky and Tecnam. This will be my next purchase. Thanks for all your reviews!
Its a great model! Thanks for using my links to purchase!
also compatible with battery 4S ? i am looking for a great plane with the same sensations than the conscendo evolution.....
If you fly without wheels on takeoff, fly by hand, how much throttle do you run, 100 percent or what percent
Full, or almost full
@@RCINFORMER ok, thanks u bro
Hi Rich! I have a NX8 / AR8020T receiver. I would like to have altitude/vario and battery telemetry. What do I have to buy in order to have this information in my radio? Thanks for the great videos !!
Were you get the Ständer from? Looking for sommething like this. Thank You for answering
Man, if this airplane had quick connects for the ailerons and flaps like the Skynetic Shrike, it would be PERFECT!
I agree, but it is a nice plane!
That's just not going to happen at this price point.
I transport the plane with one wing off. I put short servo extensions on the aileron and flap connectors to make it easier to get the wires into the fuse.
Great video, thank you for actually doing some gliding. No one else seems to do that with glider reviews. Nice model but you lost me with all those wires in the connecting. That is so 2015.
its just 2 wires per wing, aileron & flap....
So, what are your thoughts between this and the ASW-17 EP Glider PNP 2500mm? Too much difference to compare, or what would be the pros and cons?
Actually they are quite similar but im not really the best person to give pro’s and Con’s on Gliders simply because i simply don’t fly them often enough to be able to give a detailed list-that being said the both fly extremely well, the FMS is obviously higher quality in some respects but both are great model’s that fly fantastic🙂
great flight, nice info...tnx..
Produced by FMS for Arrows . Same features as ASW 17
Dude, you remind me of the coach on Rudolph The Red Nosed Raindeer. I'm gona do a spoof video on you man. 😁
Sweet!
I think the guy with the jet came down to you... on purpose.. LOL maybe probably but gee I don't know.. lol
We just powered through the turbines, glow engines & the rain... we are a all weather operation:)
NIIIICE 🔥👍✌️
i brought a stand as well brilliant
Notice no new videos
Been out for a while... videos coming!
👏👏👏
You don’t have to keep saying steve. He knows you’re talking to him

Compared to the FMS ASW-17 this plane is cheap. I would not buy this.
It's basically a less expensive smaller version. Both are good models!

Don't put the mic right in front of your mouth.
You talk too much
Thanks for watching!
