Thermal Soaring Master Class 2 Training DVD

Just about about every r/c soaring pilot needs and wants to learn as much as possible about the black art of thermal soaring. It’s a really deep subject and the second installment in this unique training series Thermal Soaring Master Class will cover even more topics rarely discussed or taught in such high detail.

 While some of the program is going to be taught classroom-style like in the first Master Class video, you’ll be going out to the field for some live-soaring tutorials with  real-time flight narration synced with onboard cameras on the gliders. This technique allows you to see the flights from the ground and in the air and hear exactly what I’m doing and thinking about in real time. This is a really useful way to learn from an expert thermal pilot actually flying.

In this deep dive into performance thermaling you’ll learn more techniques on how to better understand your local wind and weather conditions, improve your odds of finding new lift, how to avoid common thermal tracking mistakes. You’ll learn how to more quickly optimize your radio and tuning set up to lesson your pilot work load and make it easier to read your glider in flight. 

This 2 hour program includes five flight sessions and four classroom sessions covering:

• Flying Field Aerodynamics
• How To Optimize Camber & Other Mixes
• Tricks To Tracking Thermal Movement
• Tips For Flying In Wind
• Field Flight Demonstrations
• Tuning Work Flow To Improve Handling & Feedback
• Flying In Calm/Minimum Lift Conditions
• How To Determine The Current Thermal Threshold Altitude
• Reading Upper Air Wind Shifts
• Speed Control

 While the Thermal Master Class 2 video covers some of the more advanced aspects of r/c thermal soaring, pilots of all skill levels will find this program highly educational and a valuable resource you can refer to as you get more thermal soaring experience.
