FPV Heron: An Hour of Thermal Soaring

It started as a simple motor flight, just some low to the ground puttering around kinda stuff, but I was wanting to soar, the glider wanted to soar and it just ended up being a thermal flight instead.

7:45 Actual soaring starts
8:05 gnarly video signal break
8:38 I switch from standing to lying down using my truck's windshield as a "recliner." Video link gets scratchy trying to keep head mounted antenna pointed at airplane
16:00 4k altitude now, stop thermalling to chase a bird (neither the HD or the DVR footage show this well)
18:51 My SD card in my goggles maxes and my DVR stops recording (despite it being in "continuous mode" which is supposed to overwrite old files)
25:55 I start to get into some sinky air
37:53 about 2k now and starting to get nervous, picky about my thermal selection
51:34 I finally catch a decent thermal and at 5k I consider it "mission accomplished".
55:51 I begin the flight back home
58:42 I arrive back at the launch point and line up for landing
1:00:25 botched landing, I was full up-elevator and it still sunk out on me, didn't clear the road
