Dinkar of India clocks a 30 second flight.

Dinkar (School Teacher) and Sunil (School Head Master) spent some time flying their Squirrel and produced a great flight.

I believe their fun day with the Squirrel got rained out since one of the pictures has rain drops on it.

Either way, I’m really impressed with the awesome sky shots and their video which seems to be 29 or 30 seconds. I find it pretty hard to get decent sky shots.

I noticed on the flight video one of the winglets was missing the paper. I guess Dinkar noticed you only need one winglet. I discovered this during testing of prototypes as I was trying to get Squirrels to stack into a small box better. Wings with one winglet can stack together. I was able to carry a large number of Squirrels on my motorbike using this technique. But I have since invented folding winglets for my own Squirrels where the entire Squirrel can fit into a thin box. In the end on the final design I went with both winglets for symmetry and redundancy. If one winglet breaks or you have a problem with it, your flying session is still on.
