[RCSE] Little Big Winch for Xmas?

[WDimick]

Greetings,
I have one (only) complete Little Big Winch System "A" sitting on my bench 
ready to ship. This winch is the latest model with all the updates. It was 
ordered, but not paid for. I will not be making more until after the first of 
the 
year. If you hate to wait, grab this one. Or, better yet, get someone to buy it 
for you for Christmas! First Email placing an order gets it. See link below 
to my web page for complete information and pricing. 
Regards,
Walt Dimick

I've 
had a Little Big Winch for two years.  I think it's great for a one-man 
show.  I've launched planes up to a Zenith with it.  The Zenith will 
stall it if there's any wind (and maybe even if not), but you can still get a 
perfectly fine launch.  Don't expect a big zoom.  It's light and 
compact and easy to carry.  Maybe not high-start convenient, but it 
launches better and is much more versatile than a high 
start.

  I would like some feedback from flyers who are 
  currently using a relatively new Little Big 
  Winch.
   
  I would like to know your likes and dislikes 
  concerning this specific winch.
   
  I have a small car ( Audi TT ) and only have 
  room for a small winch.
   
  I plan on launching planes ranging from the 
  Artemis / NYX to a ARF Bird of Time.
   
  Thanks,

this for nearly 3 years and have love it dearly. It does well with 3 meters but 
was really strained when we tried to launch my SailAire with it..
It is extremely handy to carry.. winch in one hand, lawn mower battery in the 
other. I do NOT own a high start at all. We only use a winch, and this one is 
as easy to set up as any high start.. why bother with a high start??
Walt is very good to work with,  we highly recommend this product.

As I like to minimize the equipment weight I have to lug to the field, I
would like to hear from those pilots who have directly compared the LBW
to typical winch systems we all use. Specifically, I am interested in
the grunt characteristics, performance degradation under continuous use,
and overall quality. Thanks.

I have one Package "A" complete Little Big Winch system packed up and ready 
to ship. One flyer said they wanted it, but they never sent their money in. 
So, whoever emails me first gets it.  I have a backlog of orders most of the 
time, but I usually catch up mid Summer, and that is the case now. If you 
"hate to wait" take advantage of this situation and email me ASAP. I accept 
Money Orders, Cashier's Checks and personal checks, but If you pay with 
Paypal I will be able to ship right away (see my web site: 
<> for details) and you can be using 
it next weekend.
