First Flight with my new MENTOR 2
After a loner period with poor weather I finally managed to enjoy my first real flight with my Mentor 2. They were too short for a proper comment on the wing. Here are my most important notes:
- Preparations: Extremely easy to sort the lines
- Polyamide Rods: open leading edge nicely for launch
- Launch: nothing special, rising: not slow – not fast, inflation: fast & symmetrical, very uncomplicated
- Flying turns: reacting qickly for an EN-B, very precise, I think a a little bit harder on the break than Oryx (not sure)
- Speed Bar: WOW! It’s like igniting a turbo charger. You can hear it immediately. Very impressive (particularly for an EN B wing)
- Landing: same as launching. I noted nothing special. Easy.
- Overall: I can’t wait for good thermals and the first XC flights…….
