I’ve been following these guys since the 150 mph record was broken. Full scale aircraft can not use this technique, as over 30 Gs are being pulled a various times. A radar gun is used to measure the speed.

Don’t waste your time watching it…

I know its just a fast moving speck, but why don’t YOU get real close to film something going that fast! Everything on these sailplanes are either pointy or sharp!

That’s bizarre, and very cool.
