Olympic II, a classic glider

A nice flight in Switzerland with flying4nature’s "big old girl" the Oly II from Skybench. Look also the complete plane review at our BLOG / WEBSITE: http://flying4nature.com/
The Oly II is an evolution of the Olympic II designed and kitted by Airtronics in 1970. Since she was a huge hit in the 70’s and 80’s, Skybench have done a little tweaking and modernising and the end result is a very fine flying 100″ RE woodie.
Mine is a post 2006 kit using bang up to date electronics and a brushless motor meaning she truly is a fly anywhere, anytime bird.
Some people say that the additional weight of the motor makes the Oly II fly better now than the earlier designs but I am too young to be able to compare. Phew!
Onboard filming was done with a Mobius camera in 1080p at 30fps.
