I just shreaded thermals today, and flew my ICON lite like I stole it all
day long. 8-)
Took it up to just over 1900' easily...
Countless dynamic thermal loops, my ICON was on full step speed wise
minutes at a time. Ran down the battery doing this, so I charged up to go
again. TK's new Ava built by Dave Hauch does pretty nice thermal loops
too... 8-)
Thermaled upside down from 320' to just over 900' feet in about 5 minutes
with my ICON lite.
I can't remember a day here in Chicago when the thermals were any larger or
stronger, it was seriously all we could eat...
Happy Independence Day,
