The Slope at Bedok Reservoir. Can't advise you much on how to glide, just say your prayer, close your eyes and toss into the way, the rest shall follow naturally. . Perhaps you should just bring your plane there, I am sure many bros will be more than happy to guide you in this fascinating way of free flight. You will have to take off your prop if you want to fly at Bedok Slope.

I flew mine today and I must say it is called the easyglider for a reason. It is glides easy but landing was the only hard part: it just didn't want to come home until the wind died a little. other than that just set it up as you would with power but remove the prop and take out the motor wires. Chuck it into the wind and get ready to push it down. Mine pitched down a little as I lauched it and then voila it went up up and away. Stayed up (20 mins at a time) until my transmitter batt ran low and had to force it down.

any of u guys wanna try slope soaring a heli i want to try 1..... it works in a sim but i wanna try it in real life

Sorry,

Im sure the slopers would say the same thing.
Sloping helis, though possible, is way too hard to do here. You need alot more wind to get it up.

It's also way to dangerous to do in the local setting for obvious reasons.
It's a national park.

Thanx!

Hello, please don't fly heli at BR. We do not want to risk losing the only soaring slope in Singapore.
For the sake of all soarers, please comply.
