  • Converted from an old free-flight model to radio control it was time to see how she would fair, the wind had dropped just enough. The original 'Bogey' was from 1949, you can download your own plans from Outerzone outerzone.co.uk/plan_details.....

    I think you may be able to detect how relaxed my voice sounds at the end of the video, she sure was a calming bird!

    Captivating. And to get it out of the sky using “full down elevator “ was priceless! Thanks for sharing, Cliff.

      Hi Angus, I think I'm going to need more elevator throw if I get into any serious lift 🤔👍

    Even the fast fly-bys were slow! Really graceful looking. It didn't want to land I guess. What a fantastic maiden!

    I recently built a "Leprechaun" from an Outerzone plan ; converted it to 3ch. and fitted a motor and folding prop. Flys much like your "Dream Bogey".

    Brilliant! What an incredible amount of lift in those highly under cambered wings (yes, I have downloaded the plan from Outerzone and taken a good look!) A wonderful floater and bet you're well chuffed with this one. I'm sure you'll have many more adventures with this one!

    That was so nice, Cliff. It was, as you said, fantastic. Gliders are starting to interest me. Did you only use the prop for take-off, maybe once for lift, and then landing?

    • @CliffHarveyRCPlanes
      @CliffHarveyRCPlanes  Месяц назад

      Thanks Robert, electric gliders give you so much airtime on one battery and are generally so relaxing to fly there's nothing to dislike. Yes, you're right, motor on to climb to height then see if you can find some lift to keep you up without motor on again. Landings are a combination of motor and/or air brakes but this model doesn't have brakes so it's a bit more of a challenge, but that's all part of the fun ... with a motor you just go around and try again, cheers 👍
