Video of stalled wing + unintentional crash

[Emparri]

Thought I'll make a video of the air flow over the top of the wing at stalled conditions. Was doing fine until it went into a death spiral on me ....

Most excellent - You have clearly demonstrated all the things listed at the end of the video and with total clarity. Really nice work. It'd be interesting to do the same experiment with a flying wing with both a classic tail but no winglets and also with the winglets so we can see the difference it makes to the tip vertices.

Really you couldn't ask for a better visualisation of laminar airflow over an airfoil. Thanks for that!

That crash was awesome
