| The Liftworx Swyft
is a small wingtip launched glider under 5 oz. On flat land I can fly it
for about a minute, but on the slope my record so far is 1 hour. I could
have flown it longer, but I was getting tired. |

It's hard to see from the photo,
but this was taken after my hour long flight using the slope at Marine Creek.
Notice the 59 minutes on the timer on the transmitter |
