Maidened my Vortex on April 20, but video was taken bu GoPro from the helmet and there is not much to see.
Today, early in the Morning flew it again:

It flies pretty good, although I've expected a bit more powerful climb out of the motor.
My setup:
Hitec Aurora 9 with Optima 7 receiver, Hitec HS-125MG wing servos, 2650mAh 20C 3S Lipos, 36Amps Castle ESC, ART-2000 Brushless motor, Aerohaut 16x8 CAM folding prop.
Onboard GoPro camera.
Glider is pretty stable on low speeds, air penetration is fairly good, mixing-in flaps with ailerons gives plenty of aileron response on slow speeds.
Flaps braking is quite effective, rudder is very responsive, glider requires very little elevator control.
I will post more info on soaring experience but glider look very promissing.
Regards,
Mark
