Note this guy is flying without power on such a huge glider :o :o. :

This plane has a 9ft wing span.
Shows the confidence on Elapor ;D

Right at the start, the guy does a very stupid thing - jumps over the wing. Surely elapor is not that strong to withstand some one stamping the wing. And he surely needs no power, with such wind you don't need any. I've done something very similar with much smaller gliders and with such wind the glider will literally hang in the air.

Looking forward to your Video TG would be great seeing you control the plane at such low altitude without power .
Waiting for the Video
Sure will, once I get to it.
Today winds were very high.
Venkat did something similar to the Video with the Twin Star , but with a slight throttle ;D ;D.
Clocked in 1/2 hour with the 11.1V 4300 mah and had the battery discharged from 4.10 V per cell till around 3.74 per cell in this time.
Could have gone for another 1/2 hour more at least.
But this is kind of flying at such low altitude is not very easy.
I think guys with only 20 + on the game can do it ;) :D :D

Here is a Cularis on our field :
