Man, I can’t wait to go flying after seeing this. Exemplary material, thank you 🙏!

Can’t wait to see the next video of flying lift lines, especially the answers to turning left in northern hemisphere (coriolis effect ?) and the answer to the riddle regarding flying downwind

Many weather services include satellite animation services. It is remarkable how often one will see very well defined cloud streets (lift lines) develop.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I haven't made a video of the advanced lift lines lesson yet - and haven't rebuilt the website since the old version was forced to be mothballed.

Moe than a minute on a lift line without climbing, yes becasue I deliberately flew fast enough to just maintain rather than climb

Thanks. I hope it helps. I haven't yet posted the next video. If you're subscribed to my channel, you'll get a notification when I do. I do these live, too, so feel free to request this next one live (as a webinar). I'd be glad to do it. See my website for a list of course "lectures" and a mechanism for requesting one live.

Eric, Is there anywhere you share specifically your best settings on the Flytec 6030 setup for hang-gliders (you give a brief glimpse at minute 57:20). I'm convinced by what you say! Mine has been on factory settings (sink threshold -3.0, and no near thermal tone -- a feature I'd never heard about!) The settings (in order they appear on the "Accoustic vario" page) that I'd prefer to copy from someone than simply guess the numbers for are: *Customize sound: ascentF, Modul, sinktoneF, damp1-35, pitch1-7 * Lift audio threshold: Range(0-20cm/s) * Near thermal tone: Range(-1.0-0.0), Activate(yes/no), Cycle(10-100%) * Sink tone theshold: Range(-0.1 -12.6) Thanks!

Hi Julian. E-mail me at the address on my website (sites.google.com/site/thermalxc), and I'd be glad to send you a copy of my settings notes. Thanks. Eric

You're very welcome! I did part 2 (which I called "Advanced Lift Line Concepts") for the Soaring Society of America, and it was recorded. You can find a link to that video (along with all my available lecture videos) here: sites.google.com/site/thermalxc/lectures.

thanks for all the tips. I'm going to find what is my vario type on my club gliders ! Can you recall a good example on a sail plane?
@ramiveiberman3182

Also, I found a manual for one of the clubs gliders and it mentions a 3 way switch for manual selection of mode. however, I did not see in it my pictures of the variometer panel. Having said that, I did find a auto - speed selection for climb-cruise modes selection. What velocity would you choose? should I just put a very high value on it?
@EricCarden

You're very welcome. I hope you find some of this helpful. Most sailplane varios by default have no "quiet zone" (or have it disabled in the default configuration). Regarding switching between climb and cruise modes, most do it automatically but allow a way to do it manually. It sounds like you're on the right track to find out how to do it manually for your particular vario. With my Cambridge L-NAV (a pretty old vario), I had to wire in a two-way switch to switch between auto mode and climb mode.
