Default Wooden glider flight logs

Hi,

If anyone happen to have flight logs of a wooden RC glider, can you kindly share it with me ?
The info needed is GPS, altitude and airspeed( if pitot is not available I can derive it from GPS)

Any help is highly appreciated and thanks a lot in advance.

Best

I don't give any such information to someone I
don't know, and not to most people I do know.
Where I and my plane have been is no ones
business but mine. I'd hope most people
feel this way.

Hi Jeniffer,

Thanks for your reply. Let me clarify my request a little bit. The data I requested is to derive glider speed polar from airspeed and sink speed data. but for accurate results I need to filter out segments of flight which is straight. and I thought some people may not have airspeed indicator in that case I can derive airspeed from GPS data.

If you have some data (any kind of wooden glider flight data from which I can derive airspeed and sinkspeed) please be kind enough to pass it on.
I have requested this data and wind tunnel data for wooden glider in several places but still had no luck at all.

Thanks for consideration and happy to clarify further should anyone need to.

PS: If privacy is a consern please add or substract any random number to your GPS data points so that your privacy is unaffected.

Thanks so much.
