    Pulling some asymmetric deflations.
    The glider did very well. Trims were all the way in for testing.
    Sorry about the audio. Ill try again another day.

    I did my first paramotor SIV with my 25.5 Uni and successfully did SATs, Full stalls, deep spirals, asymmetrical collapses, horseshoes and b line stalls with no issues. Super solid wing! I have since moved onto the nucleon xx. Dudek stuff is top notch.

    Thank you for the sweet video. Really helps! I think the universal will be my next wing.

    Face shield is great! Love the water tower. I know you want to try to land on it lol.
    Interesting deformations. More and more, I'm convinced that induced deflations show very little about what happens when the wing takes a real whack, such as when I flew into the rotor at the edge of the thermal in Telluride.

    • @MitchG
      @MitchG  Před 4 lety +1

      I do not disagree with you. I think this does show us how a wing will recover from a collapse though and how much pilot input is or isn't required.

      @@MitchG My comment wasn't a criticism of your vid or pulling deflations, it's pretty cool to watch what happens to the Universal. Just saying that having done a bunch of induced deflations on various wings in calm air, when a big one happens because of a real whack in rough air it's a whole different experience. It's violent and sudden not fun...

    Looks like you trust this Wayne completely! Nice! Have you ever flown the charger? If so how do you think it compares? I've heard they're similar

    • @MitchG
      @MitchG  Před 4 lety +2

      I think the charger is close enough that a new pilot wont tell the difference. But I still think universal is best in the class :)

    I'm sold. It's between the Uni 1.1 and the Spyder 3. Will definitely demo both, but I can't see why I wouldn't go with the Uni. Are you going to sell this one when you move on to more advanced 😉 gliders?

    This is the exact wing I’m looking to get! Would the 25.5 be too small for me weighing in at 250lbs all geared up?

    • @MitchG
      @MitchG  Před 4 lety +2

      250lbs with motor and fuel? Then yes the 25.5 would work. The landings might feel fast at first but the more sporty handling will be fun.

    Why did you do it with trims in? If it goes wrong isn't it easier to get the wing back in control in neutral position?

    • @MitchG
      @MitchG  Před 4 lety +1

      Wings recover the fastest with the trims in. The wing gets back in control by itself with the trims in. If you had trims on neutral, it would still recover but just take a second or 2 longer.
