either way, when you are waaaay up high and you hit a boomer (big thermal) and speck out
that's when the size of your nuts can shrink
the glider would be sooo tiny you would be freaking out and wondering if you would go out of range...
and how to get it back? if you dive, if its a cheapie glider you risk snapping the wings or getting the BEC into overload
that's the beau-ti-ful thing
I guess that's why some ppl glider are getting BIGGER"Always fly with a responsible attitude.

When you are in your 20s and 30s.....1m wingspan can be seen 200m out...
When you reach 40......2m wingspan can be seen 200m out
When you reach 50......3m wingspan can be seen 200m out...
Oh man at this rate.....Id need a 4m plane soon
There are indeed certain "health conditions" that set in as you get older unfortunately. Most importantly, get something
1. You can see from far....color scheme is important in our mostly grey skies
2. Somthing you can handle that matches your flying style
3. Something you enjoy....
I still vote for the EGP for being the best all rounder glider around for that price/performance ratio.Do you feel the RUSH....!!!!

OT until dunno go where.... lol
But Easyglider Pro is still the best!
see how many ppl buy Easyglider
better yet, when they crash their Easyglider, they buy another! (this happens rarely though)
it's like the Funjet of gliders
Remember if you're a total glider newbie to program ESC to brake the spinning props."Always fly with a responsible attitude.
