First test flights, first problem


Today, I finally arrived at the airfield. Gusty wind, not very good for the first tests with a new glider, but I continued .

During a landing with the glider rotating, the F27 wing anchor failed and shortened the flight session to only half an hour.

I got home and studied the problem. The solution was to glue a rectangle of 3 mm plywood, fixed in position with the help of the rest of the remaining F27 piece. Thus the position of the wing is firm and correct.

Ready to fly!
