Bug HLG

There are other higher performing hlg's and there are places on the net to promote them but this group is for those who want to build the Bug. Personally I have a Gambler, XP-3 poly and XP-3 aileron dlg. They are all better performing than the Bug but when I'm just flying for fun, I still like flying my four ounce Bug. The small size and light weight makes it unique. Last Saturday was an great day and I got a 12:37, a 12:13, and a 9:35 minute flight. My Gambler got me an easy 15 minute flight but the flights with the Bug were more of an accomplishment and more fun. The Bug will never be a competition hlg but it is fun combined with the fact that launching this light weight glider is a lot less stressful on my old body.
