👉 Four questions for D1S Pilot Ivan! For Ivan Djeorgievski, model flying isn’t just a hobby—it’s been a passion since childhood. Today, he’s sharing a bit of his story and what makes the D1S so special to him. 🚀 How did you get into RC flying? I got into RC flying when I was around six years old. At the time, RC equipment was difficult to find and very expensive. My father, a top modeler, introduced me to the hobby, and I quickly fell in love with what I still believe is the best hobby in the world. ✈️ What do you like most about flying the D1S? The people behind the D1S clearly have an outstanding understanding of aerodynamics. The attention to detail is fascinating, and I especially admire that they are constantly working to improve the model even further. Without a doubt, the D1S is the most beautiful competition glider, and I could write a book about how it flies. 🏆 Do you fly competitions, or do you mostly fly for fun? I compete in multiple categories because I have a very strong competitive spirit, but I also enjoy flying purely for fun. One of my proudest achievements was becoming Vice World Champion and World Champion in the S8E category. 🛩️ Besides RC flying, what are your other hobbies, and what do you do for work? Model aviation is my main hobby. I also enjoy building model aircraft and repairing anything related to technology. Professionally, I’ve been working in aviation for 23 years, which perfectly matches my passion for flying.
