Cool flight Lee:) The tail movement, twisting, is that normal?

Graham you are on fire.
Guessing that I bought a glider, and now spotting the problem.
I notice on one flight that the glue had come apart on the vertical stabiliser.
Its now been glued properly ;)

Thanks guys.
Here is a pic from today, soaring on the ridge.
It was super windy, so video was vomit worthy.

My friend Antonio and I soaring. The wind was bitter, but we found a rock, out of the wind to shelter and fly.

Our lower spot on the ridge when the wind is strong.
It was way too strong to go to the top of the hill.

Love the look of that trolley launch, I wonder if I could launch my AXN like that.
I won't fly it FPV alone because I don't like to put the goggles on when I am already flying.

I thought about setting up a bungee but this might be better.

Its a lot more forgiving than a bungee.
