Good video. Thanks for posting!!!

Also, I like your avatar experimentation. Sometimes it can take a while to find one that both fits the individual and fits the context of the forum. I think you're getting closer and closer!!

Thank you for this post. I have been studying this in depth. Do we need to improve performance or do we need to improve portability to compete with paragliders. There is much to think about here. NASA gave us the Delta wing, the military may give us the 7th gen glider. Don't count out the British giving us a 7th generation glider. Putting tariffs on paragliders could give us a leg up as well. My car won't pass smog so I cannot upgrade my telescopic glider until September so I am stuck with the damaged original prototype so please forgive me if you see small bits of duct tape here and there but it still works and I can make demonstration videos of it.
