Apr 24, 2009 - how are you able to gain altitude with little to no wind and no motor?
smorrismlbco Says:
Apr 26, 2009 - Soaring requires either vertically moving air or wind gradients. In these videos there is either thermal lift caused by uneven heating of the earth and then rising bubbles of air, or ridge lift which is wind deflected upward by an obstruction.

Aug 16, 2009 - They're "vortilons", google for the full story. The gist is they allow it to fly slower without stalling.

Aug 2, 2010 - my dads been getting me to train in light aircraft but this looks much more like my kind of flying! no ATC much more freedom. Ive been wimping out because i always think flying these kinds of craft is high risk but with a built in parachute im very interested in these and i weigh 150lbs so im guessing i could go quite far!

Nov 11, 2010 - What a tease. Here is a video that makes you want one only to find out they aren't produced anymore. Can you really not get one anywhere?
