Nice video, nice location. Here in Germany we are expecting snow over Christmas - unfortunately no flying 😮💨. I wonder why you did not use flaps in order to slow her down for landing 🤔
Hello Friedrich, thank you for writing. Hope the snow season is short, and you are back in the air soon. About the use of flaps, I'm not such a confident flyer, but trying to use the flaps now on approach. I did try using flaps just recently and applied them at the wrong time and tip stalled nearly into a small pond. Ha! I will keep trying to improve. All the best to you!
@@stevenmohr4588 controlling the flaps in an on/Off mode could apply too much of a break. Therefore, I mix them with my throttle stick position (while throttle ist switched Off) - This allows a fine dosage of flap deflection. First tests of flap control should anyway be done at reasonable altitude, then you have a chance to react if something unexpected happens
Nice video. Looks like a great place to fly
Thanks John, it is a nice location for certain. Just need to hike in a short walk. Bye!
