MSFS 2020 - Hang Gliders
If you love flying and adventure, you might be interested in learning about all the foot launchable hang glider classifications. These are the different types of hang gliders that you can launch by running off a hill or a cliff, without needing a tow or a motor. There are three main classifications of foot launchable hang gliders: rigid wing, flex wing, and foot launchable sailplanes. Each one has its own advantages and disadvantages, depending on your preferences and skills.
Rigid wing hang gliders have a fixed frame that supports the wing shape. They are more aerodynamic and efficient than other types of hang gliders, but they are also heavier and harder to transport and set up. They require more skill and experience to fly safely and smoothly.
Flex wing hang gliders have a flexible sail that changes shape according to the air pressure. They are lighter and easier to transport and set up than rigid wing hang gliders, but they are also less aerodynamic and efficient. They are more forgiving and responsive to fly, but they can also be more unstable in turbulent conditions.
Foot launchable sailplanes are the highest performance and most difficult to fly type of foot launchable hang gliders. They have a completely rigid structure that uses standard 3-Axis controls for maneuvering. They are not light or compact and need special equipment to transport. They are easy to launch and land, but they have the highest performance and speed of all the hang glider types.
These are all the foot launchable hang glider classifications that you can choose from if you want to experience the thrill of flying like a bird. Each one has its own pros and cons, so you should do some research and try them out before deciding which one is right for you. Remember to always fly safely and responsibly, and have fun!
