Can you tell me the meaning of Leprechaun, this craft looks like a giant. Dragon fly, the engine/ motor, literally not visible,also smooth take off, very much nice effort sir!!
My Leprechaun has proved disappointing to fly, it wallows around in a moderate breeze and has almost zero penetration. Adding some ballast under the CG has only improved the performance marginally - any suggestions to improve performance, please ?
John Woodfield (on youtube) has good success sloping his in mild conditions - I think you'd need pretty serious thermal activity to lift this bird... it's hardly an efficient design
Looks very professional. I expected smoother landings though. Thanks.
4kg wow i was expecting 1.8 - 2.2 kg being built so light. Looks like you had a great day.
4kg and how it flies nicely

There is no engine/ motor fitted...it is a pure glider.
