Any landing you can walk away from................actually, it's just broken downtubes - easy fix. However, I need to make some aerodynamic config changes so it will be a month or so before I try again. Still, parts of the flight were way cool as seen from my seat. It's just that part where I became a spectator instead of a pilot that wasn't as much fun.
Yep, and we thought all was OK, just a few adjustments to more flare authority. However, 3 years later I'm still working the problem of having enough control authority for this type of wing. Recent analysis has provided some insight and I have mods I believe will work. If you look at my most recent videos, you'll see what I think is the root cause of problems. Hopefully I will have it fixed soon!
Well, we've made lots of changes to the pilot's cage, hand grips, and suspension systems that make it easier. But, most importantly, viewers must be made aware that I'm 65 and out of shape, so if I can do it, almost anyone can.
Oh no! Glad you’re OK

Untill landing it looks good :-)

Take off and control at the same time, and the shifting of COG, seem to be awkward. When she's up, she'll fly like a condor I'll bet.

@@KlingbergWingMkII I'd say legs up and you are safe to land... That speed can't be handled even by a young athlete
I liked the MK I better ❤
I'm curious, why?
