Top Comments of this video!! :3
My grandfather was a physicist by profession, but in his retirement, spent most of his time designing, building and piloting model planes.
Most of his were ICE or battery-electric powered, but he also had a pretty big glider which was completely passive.
It was merely controlled with its rudders (is that what they're called?). If he threw it off the big hills near where we lived, he could fly it over to some thermals (indicated by circling birds) and keep it in the air for an hour or so.
This video just brought back so many memories I have with him in his workshop and out in fields. I love your design. If I had enough technical know-how, I'd love to make one myself.

This has been one of the coolest journeys recorded in YouTube history, in my opinion. I love you, Tom. Keep being awesome
