Posted by admin

Today I did 4 launch and each launch was with successful take of.

Wind and weather is good. one thing still confusing me. It was same motor which i fly yesterday. Mangesh done one flying and land. Same instruction control on throttles and everything is fine.

I am ready for flying, i did reverse launch and control the wing and go go go and srrrrrrrrr I am in Air nicely. I press throttle very carefully and i get the point of throttle. one time its again try to loose power but now i get the point of correction of throttle control i release the throttle little and again its come on power and i start lifting nicely. I spend more then 18 to 20 min in first launch. I feel really like hawk flying in sky and watching the world from hawk eye. Its very beautiful scenery from sky i enjoy lots I have no word to express it.
Eric sir call me for landing, but i didn’t want to come back to land LOL. After make approch i came for landing Mangesh sir told me make a power landing. I prepare my self for power landing and land but with knee folded because my flare is not react nicely. every thing is ok.

2nd launch its all done by my self make reverse launch control glider turn forward quickly give power and go again, nice launch. the confident level build up little more again. I fly 20 to 22 min and soar in air here and there I try to make straight and level flying but wind blow me little here and there I try to control and make it straight flying. I see down try to make flight follow over the foot track for little practicing the flight for directional flying. I success little bit but not smoothly follow the track some time glider go little left and sometime right.

Eric sir again call me Karan get down your petrol is came to finish now make a approach and land. then i came for landing and land not nicely but better the 1st landing. At this flight i make one touch down and go just touch the ground and again take off. but this practice is not good in learning period.

3rd launching- after 2nd landing we make a break for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes Eric sir ask me, karan would u want to take one more flight. I smile from inside and tell my self, That Eric sir ask to a person for water, who is very trusty. I quickly answer yes sir if u allow I want to make one more flight. Today he fill happy so and behave very differently. I will get ready and make one more flight. At this time one trike is also flying in same ground. Eric call me in radio and warn me about trike flying. I answer Rozer sir, I make observe and flight. Now we two flayer in same ground. its very wonderful when another one is also flying in same ground. this flying is also about 15 to 20 mins. I fly until Eric sir call me for land.
this was my 3rd landing its also well.

4th launch- Now Eric sir ask me to pack up the glider. u done lots of flying today. I say ok and pack the glider and helping one of the flyer he is also new flayer ( Shriinivas Gadare 52) he is good Free flyer but little bit heavy he make reserve launch run and when the glider try to lift him he sit down on harness and get struck with ground with hips ( Painful launch) but not get any wound and every thing is ok. I thanks god. After 45 minutes what happen Eric sir ask me again karan would u make one flight more. I smile and answer yes sir why not. Very fast i get ready for flying with motor Mangesh sir layout the glider on ground.
At this time i feel i missing something. I feel that it was very good chance to catch some wonderful moment of flying in camera. I ask Sandeep mobile camera and kept it with radio pocket. make reverse launch and give power and go now i feel everything is happen easily.
my confiedent is in new level. At this time i flew and take more height (900 to 1000ft). and watch the city. wow! good looking at the moment Eric sir give the call and tell me that make low flying you are going to much height cloud may be suck you, yes i correct and i live the powe low and flew down and after 500 to 600ft i start straight flying. i captured some photos and try to make vedio clip but it cant save so i have only some photos which i want to share with you all. with one my close up pic. and some video clip.
