And don't forget - F5J flyoff task time is 15 minutes!<br>
<br>
That's Arijan Hucaljuk of Croatia, the winner of the big show in
Trnava. He's a NAN factory sponsored pilot (the manufacturer of the
Explorer). He is considered by many to be the best RC soaring pilot
in the world. He's won practically everything. Junior F3B world
champion, Eurocup F3J champion, and now F5J world champion. He's
about the same age as Jon Garber. <br>
<br>
Notice his Explorer (Big Flap) has a horizontal stabilizer with
anhedral ? You can see it pretty well in some of the video. This is
something that Arijan himself came up with (and apparently likes
enough to fly it in the flyoffs). Pantelis says this is not
something that NAN plans to produce and sell to the general public.
<br>
<br>
You would think he would break a lot of horiz. stabs with that
anhedral, but, coming from the F3J world, Arijan lands it like an
F3J plane (dork!). No broken tail. <br>
<br>
I haven't actually gotten that far in Jure Pečar's videos. There's
about 6 hours of video, and I'm still on day 4, watching 30-60
minutes per night. MUCH better than watching regular TeeVee. :)<br>

<div class="">At about 15 minutes into the video, during round 2,
someone makes his time by sloping off a tree at maybe 10 meters
max for almost the entire task! Seriously amazing flying!!!!!</div>
