I got yelled at by the guy who owns the race track for foot dragging it. Probably wouldnt fly low over it lol

I subscribe to csmith and seen this flight. Was cool to see it through your view going through those maneuvers! Our flying styles are similar and was looking at upgrading wings to either the Nucleon 4, Drift air, Hadron 3, or Viper XC? How long you been flying? I'm in my 4th year/160 flights and have just been stumped on a next wing

What are you on now? Driftair, H3, Viper are all "3rd Step" wings Nucleon/Sirroco are 2nd step. And the Solo, Spyder, roadster 3 are T1. I wouldn't recommend going from 1 to 3. Driftair is my next glider but you'd be surprised how much you'll gain from a Spyder to a Nucleon/Sirroco. It was definitely noticeable. I don't think it would have been smart if I went from Solo to Driftair. That's a big jump. I'm waiting a bit, probably to the end of the season to upgrade as this Nucleon really offers a lot. That being said Drifty is my next (3rd) wing hands down.

@@PPGKyle My first and only wing is a Flow Cosmos Power and I'm 153kg all up with 15L of fuel on a 160kg max for the glider. I'm very fast on it and it's pretty agile, same speed as my flying buddy on a 85% loaded Hadron 3. The more research I do, the more confused I get. Roper recommended a Drifty, Ripman said a Nucleon, and Minyard told me a ITV Baja. 3 very experienced pilots and 3 categories of wing??? Any insight is appreciated and really the only reason I want to change is my wing is now on it's 4th season. Keep up with the videos and thanks for the reply! I want something safe, very agile, fast, and lifty if there is such a wing? My wing takes a lot of throttle to maintain flight resulting in 6-8 liters per hour of fuel burn and doesn't climb very fast.

@@shanewyman9419 I trust both Ripman and Roper. Matt will always recommend ITV but full disclosure I am not familiar with ITV, Flow, BGD, etc. Only Ozone and Dudek. Not sure where yours sits on the "Tiers list". It dosnt sound like a very efficient glider though, at all.... That being said, you're getting different recommendations as its hard to gauge your exact experience level from a few online conversations. We dont want to say "yeah go driftair" and then you launch and youre like "woah this is spicy..." I'd say this; if youre out there every day hitting those wingovers real deep, getting the glider below you, deep spirals, moving into the barrel roll region, and overall prefer to rip around low level, crank and bank, use that PA system on bar - then Drifty is for you (This is how I prefer to fly, hence why Im going to get one) If youre more an explorer, going out for an hour or two, low level flying, efficiency, but still have the ability to play around really well, then a Nucleon 4 or Hadron is your best bet. (Maybe Viper XC but its not as agile as an H3). N4 is a step below the H3 and Drifty so expect if you go to either of those wings it will be a pretty noticeable "woah it takes very little input to get a LOT of bank" And theres always the fact that the higher you go, the greater awareness of collapse recovery you need. Long story long, I love my Nucleon4 and it was a great noticeable step up from the Solo in speed, efficiency and maneuverability. Ive put it through the paces. Im sure the drift air as I increase my loading will be even more sensitive. This probably didnt help you much, I'm just 1 of many folks out there, and only a few years under my belt. You'll just need to determine whats more important to you; efficiency, speed, agility?

@@PPGKyle helps a lot actually. I think the best thing would be to try and demo a Nuke 4, H3, and a drift air to see. The Nuke or Hadron would probably fit the bill as I will also fly hands off and try to cover ground but I find myself yanking and banking as I get bored. My wingover progression is getting better and better, I practice every flight with the goal of barrel rolling but may save that for an SIV. I do a lot of spiraling but am also very cautious on how steep I go as I know the consequence of getting too steep.
