Red Bull Flugtag

the real one

Red Bull Flugtag (German: flight day, airshow) is an event organized by Red Bull in which competitors attempt to fly home-made, human-powered flying machines, size-limited to around 10 metres (33 ft), weight-limited to approximately 150 kilograms (330 lb). The flying machines are usually launched off a pier about 9 metres (30 ft) high into the sea or body of water. Most competitors enter for the entertainment value, and the flying machines rarely fly at all.

Controls

Litterly just press 1 and try to fly as far as you can...

Right after take off pull up a little, then let the plane fall a little. then about 2/3s in pull all the way up and keep that till you hit the water, best distance I got was about 780 feet.

    they have lots of safety, open tops, helmets, and they have regulations like that. I assume.

    But seriously thou, the Flugtag event is pretty interesting. If you know how to design an aircraft, you will do pretty good in these contests. But I wonder, how has no one died during these events.
