Default Soaring Moving to Condor?

Hey Guys,

We had 22 pilots on US Nightly Soaring (9pm) this night! Come and join the fun tomorrow.

All the best,
Daniel

That was a fun and fast Final glide to the finish with you tonight. Wasn’t sure you were going to pull it off for a second, you were so low.. First time I’ve seen that many pilots since I started racing this fall. Total blast!

How long until we see Condor hardware appearing on Wings and Wheels?Â*
Gotta upgrade your hardware to win at high level contests... :-D

Paul Remde already has a great selection of hardware for Condor2 on Cumulus Soaring.

I'm using an Oculus Rift S and VR is a game changer with the sim.

All you need is a joystick, reasonably recent off the shelf PC and a stable internet connection.

There's a lot of other things to add to the experience, but it doesn't make you go any faster.

It's one of the nice things about Condor, you can't spend your to victory. Some of the downloadable planepacks are handy, but who's complaining when you can fly an EB29 for $15?

50 to 1 at 100 knots is unreal!

All the best,
Daniel

I’ve learned that at high speed (but still comfortably below redline) it is easy to rip the wings off it. Also found out it is very hard to take off loaded with water in a crosswind with those long wings.
