My first competition the Aeros Winter Race is behind me, I was happy to place 11th.Ĭongratulations for the new RX pro, I would not have thought that the new one can make even more fun! I’m hoping there’s still enough heat left in our days to get a thermal flight before winter sets in.įantastic build job, thank you to the team that built this glider for me. Lovely neutral balance on the shoulders before take-off although I did notice a slight squeeze due to the narrower base bar.

Roll authority is so much lighter with half to full VG than any other glider I’ve owned. At trim with hands off it flies straighter for longer ( without any input ) than any other glider I’ve owned ( VG off and VG full ). I’ll move the hang point forward a hole and see what change it makes. It is certainly a beautiful thing and possibly my new mistress…įirst impressions without making any adjustments: At full VG and the bar stuffed to my knees it tracks beautifully straight, but I did notice some bar pressure even at full VG. The build quality and attention to detail on this glider is second to none. Straight out of the box I noticed this glider is light! Slipping the outer leading edges in was straight forward. Managed to visit a flying site on the way home. I collected the glider on Friday from the freight company.

I believe the glide is second to none and it loves being loaded, glides of 50 mph plus feel fantastic! So, I guess you’ve done it again! Congrats! Phill Bloom Also, the field of pilots were no slouches! The glider was nothing less than exceptional in performance, I sat on top of most climbs, even giving Jonny a run for his money on the RX 4 and Tyler on the 3.5. I was a little worried about the new Skylite sail not having done any comp flying beforehand, not knowing what to expect. Last fall I went to the Santa Cruz Flats race in Arizona and placed in the top five with the likes of Tyler, Jonny, Kraig, and Olav. Thats why I started flying Moyes gliders, the quality of craftsmanship, performance, handling, beginner like launching and landing characteristics of the RX are added perks that will keep me on a Moyes. I have seen top Moyes pilots fighting for 1st and 2nd in a Open contest pull out of launch line to help another Moyes pilot (in the Sports Class) get into the air before they did saving that pilots contest while jeopardizing their own, parts are always close by and if they aren't Moyes has always looked at every option to try and find a way to get you back in the air the next day, questions always get answers and as corny as this may sound, you are made to feel like part of the family.

The second reason I bought a Moyes which is every bit as important to me as the first reason and that is SERVICE. The first was that I felt I was always looking up at the Moyes guys at the top of the stack, it seemed as though the Moyes gliders were always climbing better, they seemed able to fly just that little bit slower in lift and still keep full control allowing them to move up through the gaggle. I switched to flying a Moyes 4 years ago initially for 2 simple reasons.
