INTRODUCTION F5J electro glider 2860mm starter model Flight review
Ойын-сауық
The model:
Libelle Competition - Libelle Evo - Libelle Supreme - Libelle A 380 ... The INTRODUCTION F5J, our first model for the still young competition class F5J, has inherited excellent genes! Of course it is a plane for all kind of pilots: for those, who love long flights in the thermals as well as for those, who love to have relaxing flights, for the "come-without-charger-to-the-model-flying-site"-pilots as well as for the "I-won't-charge-between-the-flights"-pilots. Inspired by our world-famous Libelle A380, we created our new Introduction F5J by resolving the one and only serious problem the A 380 had: No airbrakes to escape thermal lifts.
As usual we used stable tubular carbon spars, precisely lasercut wood parts, a very simple construction (Hoellein-3D-puzzle), easy and forgiving take off-, flight- and landing characteristics, large speed range due to the modified AG35 section, ecxellent handling and thermal characteristics. Easy purchase of single spare parts and assemblies. Made in Germany!
New: 2860mm wingspan, 920g flying weight, three-part wing with multiple dihedral and attached wingtips, lightweight rudder and elevator constructed in a solid interlocking framework, removable elevator (optional) mounted in front of the rudder, 90° deflectable landing flaps enabling you flying vertical descents, integrated wing connectors in the main spar, innovative (tool- and tape-free) fixation of the outer wings. Vertical descents with deflected landing flaps (90°) and landings avoiding the vortex zone on steep slopes are now possible without any problems.
The recommended drive - containing the BL-outrunner Hacker A20-22L Evo, a 3-cell LiPo with a capacity of 1300mAh and the CamCarbon 11x6 prop - allows a many many climbs to thermal country. Due to the light weight, a motor run time of 5 to 10 seconds per climb is sufficient.

There is nothing quite like laying in the grass on a hot summer day,hunting and catching thermals and flying for an hour without touching the throttle. You should try it,its very relaxing.

Well, this is a real RC-Model Dreambird !!! Thank you Brothers and Christian - SALUTE !!!
Now that is a real work of art. It reminds me of the Kiel kraft caprice (you can still buy) I built as a teenager. No rc then, I threw it into the air as a test for cg and it flew up and away and I just stood dumbfounded as it rose above the clouds never to be seen again. That’s art not sh...🕊🏴❤️

@@krist370 I lost a small glider last summer. I wasn't flying FPV, but it got caught in what they call a "hat sucker" thermal. It took my glider, and I never saw it again. I was flying way too high for the size of the small glider, and it just vanished. Some of the more veteran glider pilots have told me on forums that if you can't see the elevator your too high :)
Great work building the glider from kit, salute!
Isn’t soaring the best?!!! Awesome 😎 I just love all of it!!! Just got my T33 EDF.... from one end to the other, it’s all fantastic!!!👍😎

So satisfying to see a slow glider. Must get mine out of mothballs when I find somewhere to fly. Thanks once more.
Great job brothers 👏👏👏🙏👊🍻
Beautiful Bird. Salute!!!!
Beautiful to watch. And, unless I'm mistaken, the first plane to land complete on the 'carpet' from touch down to stop.

Brad Dixon me too, but for last 10 years I was more in electric planes. When I started in 1996 with RC, I had only gliders in my hangar, since electric motors were too heavy and underpowered.
one of my favourite things is relaxing while watching some of our local wedgetail eagles working the lift,sometimes just clearing the rooftops warming in the early morning.Another favourite is flying a glider when there's a bit of lift in the air.I know when my neck gets sore,there is good lift around.It is very satisfying when you actually realise the model is making height. you should try it,thanks for another entertaining clip
Great video! I hope you will do more gliders. Big Salute to Captain Christen from NC, USA. Thanks Pilot Robert and Captain Blaz for all the videos. I think you should get a Honey Badger to take care of the moles!
Incredible creation. Amazing !
Only recently I thought that it´s unfair that glider pilots have to miss videos about rc gliders commented by the matchless Petrincic brothers. And now you did it. Thanks, also to Cpt. Kristian!

Awsome sailplane! I have been flying mine for 2 years and I love it. It truly would have gone up on the rising air from the manure pile. My first flight with my Inroduction was over an hour I landed because I needed to use the restroom. What fun!

Great plane, flight and friends. Have a wonderful weekend!
Heartwarming to see someone still building balsa wood framed wings and fuselage. You can really see the beauty of the structure and it looks just so light and aerodynamic. Good job!! (If the manure pile was just a little bigger you could have thermalled over it.... Come on cows!!! Do you your duty!!)
This is for the pleasure.... Captain Robert
I want a glider it blows as hell here in Sweden. =)
Haha, would love to go to Slovenia again. I visited my parents once when they were in Zreče and visited Ljubljana. You should do a summer camp weekend! People overnight in tents at the runway! Then during the day go flying... grill BBQ in the evening! I would love that, hey!
