For those who do a spot of slope soaring, these are my initial pictures of my latest experiment – 3.75m glider using glassfibre wings and balsa for rest of the construction. If it doesn’t fly, it will be a big crash…
the BFG development is now ready to test, all we want is a nice westerly and a visit to Pole Cottage…
Sorry about the orientation of pictures, rotate does not seem to work on the blog
Looks good Barry. Is it just a two piece wing ? Big pieces !
What are you thinking re. airbrakes or spoliers ?
Keep the photos coming.

Yes 2 piece wings as the car boot is over 2m with seats down. I will use the same crow braking as the Skua and orange thermolite which works very well. I am expecting it to be docile and with the dihedral on the wing tips quite stable.
