I need a GO Pro type camera and after sunrise
In my location, the terrain is very formidable and unforgiving. I had brought a wonderful Lazair ultralight to this new wonderland, that microlight has two wing mounted engines (very low power);the second engine bought some time. Nevertheless with landing opportunities few and far between the Toucan presents redundancy along with two place mode and range. In fact it flies quite well on one engine, with no asymmetrical issues. Yes it gives up that out in the wind feeling of a Lazair, but it retains a lot of the same excellent flying characteristics and at higher cruise and payload. Plus it can carry a second pilot. My Lazair could land in the low 20 mph range, while the Toucan can do it in the mid to low 30s.(One up.) When I bought this kite I had no idea just how rare a machine I was getting! Challenging yes, but a great privilege.
Note: Maybe vortex generators will get her down in mid twenties?
