Appreciate it! One problem at the time: once you have takeoff and glide sorted out you start worrying about landing :). Was not that crazy: Tenerife is known for its beaches: when you start from 2200m and glide all the way to 0m there is time to find a place to land :)
It might work in this totally calm air, but as soon as you enter turbulent and moving air, you'll see the difference between the Leopard (one of the best EN-D's) and that 2-liner EN-C. I have flown the Volt 4, and it does sink a lot in turbulence when accelerated.
That's directly from the GoPro camera. I used a GoPro 8 Black that has also GPS receiver. Just enabled the "overlay" in the Quik app and the speed and track etc are displayed on the clip
I can see that trailing edge is always slightly deflected (on the right side, based on the shadow), you need to release your brakes more, this will improve gliding performance.
Yep, it felt I was a little faster on the Leopard but not as much as I expected. Also I was flying a competition harness, an Exoceat while the pilot on the Volt4 was on a XC harness. The difference was so small that, in the end, the faster pilot will be the one that would dare to stay with more speed bar in turbulence.
A guy who jumps into the unknown always in my team. Instant sub. Nice channel!!

Not sure why this was recommended to me but very happy to watch haha! Cool stuff :)

playing around till the end and then " Where is the landing?" 🤣🤣
Never too late to worry about essential things 😀. Actually there were many options, just wanted to know what’s the “official” one.
You met with the most famous spanish glider reviewer ! He was flying with +5kg, but it seems to be so nice wing!
🎉increíble día de vuelo! Por mi zona en el valle la Orotava Tenerife 💪💪💪
Long life to innovation
Where is the landing, perfect
What software and hardware did you use to edit the video?
That's directly from the GoPro camera. I used a GoPro 8 Black that has also GPS receiver. Just enabled the "overlay" in the Quik app and the speed and track etc are displayed on the clip
Excuse me, how do you enter flight data such as speed and so on in the video? I do some editing too but I don't know how to put this data. Thank you
Hi. On this video the data is from the GoPro camera. Just turn on the overlay on the phone application for GoPro, Quik.
same speed and glide as D Leopard wtf?!
Nice!!!
Impressive considering you are at the max of the weight range (112kg)
Right. It will be very interesting after Ozone, Gin etc will release their own C 2-liners.
I can see that trailing edge is always slightly deflected (on the right side, based on the shadow), you need to release your brakes more, this will improve gliding performance.
Not the same speed. Leopard had min 2 km/h faster speed, as you can see he jumped forward and stayed forward
