After watching Greg putting the saker through its paces last weekend I couldn't wait to tweak the Saker and get it going my self. An easterly makes the Crest an obvious and ballistic slope option. It also means that as the wind picks up the rotor and landing conditions can get a handful.
As a setting test the Crest is a tough one, the Maker's in built benign qualities and abilities means that she went fast and when a thermal picked up- very very fast! Although very different to the Falcon the Saker was so easy to pump bigger and bigger reversals- the wings and joiner were definitely stress tested. Some less than perfect landings also tested the wing tips!
I'm loving this Saker and cant wait for the first production models to arrive. Just my thumbs slowing it down!
