Hey Cliff, thankfully this arvo the rain stopped & i was able to get the Decathlon maiden going. Thanks mate. Love your bespoke models you painstakingly create.
Very neat glider Noel. I've never flown or seen one of those. Great footage in the overcast conditions. Interesting how different things look as the light changes.
Thoroughly enjoyed that flight, Noel. There's something about motor gliders and the way they float about that evokes the strongest feelings of exhilaration I'd get as a child watching my model gliders performing the seemingly impossible magic of flight. Thanks!
Hello my friend, it looks like a hand launch is really easy. I think it’s really cool. I didn’t think you guys ever get bad weather I have never seen a cloudy day on your channel, it’s always so sunny it seems. Anyway here we’re getting snow today, as always thumbs up
Hi Don, snow again!! We needed the rain badly. I dodged the rain yesterday afternoon & under cloud, maiden’d the Decathlon. Such a great aircraft & used 8 camera locations on it. Many thanks for watching the ASW. Wonderful glider!
G’day A.M. i use 3m double sided tape & replace a new piece each time i move the camera. Make sure you use a piece of clear tape on the painted areas otherwise removing the 3M tape may lift the paint or transfer. The clear tape should not effect the look as invisible but just apply some warm water on a tissue over the clear tape & leave fir a little while, then the tape should lift off.
Hello my friend. Always a pleasure to see "my" glider ASW-17 on your videos. Currently I am learning to fly by Sun and low wind 😂 my new Kavan Swift S1. JPhilippe. France.
salutations J Phillipe… 🇫🇷quel modèle de qualité le Swift est. non disponible ici en Australie, je viens de le regarder voler sur RUclips. merveilleux. merci beaucoup d'avoir pris le temps de voir l'ASW mon ami.
Tu m'épates de parler en français. Mny thks for this .❤!!! Take care of you. Viva Austria. Try to fly with Lipo backyard. Still noze heavy. If you land on dry grass, you could break your wheel gear... Like me, few months ago.😂 ASW 17 is a very very nice glider. And so graceful in flight. Congratulations !
Perfect plane for your environment. I fly the arrows szd 54 power glider and love it. Thanks mate.
Yes that power glider & the Swift from Xfly are great models Jay. I just ordered the umx Conscendo that i can program spoilerons as it has no flaps.
Nice plane…huge! Shows up well against the clouds.
Yes it does! She’s a ‘big-un’ Randy. Great glider.
Very nice flight Noel, so graceful in the air....jeff.
Tye Asw would do well over your cliffs Jeff???
nice mellow flying good looking glider 😊👍👍👍
Thanks 👍 it sure is!!
We've got more than our fair share of the wet stuff, I'll send some over! nice video 👍

Many thanks Adam. You would put it thru it’s paces i bet! Such a gentle giant that could be awakened in your hands!
Gliders are so graceful, is really relaxing and exhilarating all at the same time!
Very much so Lance. Love flying this & once in the air she just floats so beautifully.

Hi Gina, yes you are so right. Very relaxing and the Asw just floats on & on.
A glider would be good for your property… especially the Umx Conscendo.
That's one giant glider it looks huge in the sky. Very nice video, my friend, as always nice job!!!
It is one huge glider Shannon but flies like a gentle giant. Thanks indeed

Such a nice glider! What do you use to attach cameras to your airplanes? I'm trying to avoid velcro but not sure if there's a better option.
G’day A.M. i use 3m double sided tape & replace a new piece each time i move the camera. Make sure you use a piece of clear tape on the painted areas otherwise removing the 3M tape may lift the paint or transfer. The clear tape should not effect the look as invisible but just apply some warm water on a tissue over the clear tape & leave fir a little while, then the tape should lift off.
@@Bellairvideo thanks for the advice, damaging paint and foam were my biggest concerns
Applying the 3m type tape on bare foam would be ok & should lift off easily
I have watched your set up on the Umx Conscendo. Well done
Beautiful flight! But, in case you didn’t notice, only one flap was working. Didn’t appear to be a problem though.
She flies so well…. Like this one:

Second flight it seemed to be working. Apologies, my error!
No worries
