Wow, no postings all day? Might be the first time in 6 months.

I came across this video. It's almost like a Warren Miller movie for F3K.

great video quality and well composed.   Still amazes me the energy they put into that launch!
Yea 400W/lb should about do it.. But wouldn't a nice round 500 be better?

i agree, that energy that they put into that launch must be a lot.....those are gliders right?

yes gliders.  the other name than F3K is Discus launch Glider or also DLG.  Very light, very strong composite construction.
