stabilizer a bit larger (or reduce the overall dihedra
HI Andrew,
As I read youranswer about winches I see a very strong voice about the
enviroment. The reason the price of oil and gas is so high in your country and Europe

Dude,
I use a Holliday 2M high start to launch a 60" HLG. Get the biggest, strongest

Dude,
Don't use a Feather Rx.
Don't use HS-50's.
Don't launch off of an AMA winch.
Don't fly it MoM.
Don't complain about Walmart when it doesn't fly OOS!

You should have bought a pack of sate sticks while you were about it.
(They're like small kabob skewers). You'll need them to reinforce wings and

Free flight they do better with a big nail in the nose. I was towing one up
on a line and letting it circle around until it landed. The LAST flight it
caught a thermal. We chased it 5 miles and we finally could not see it any
more. My first specked glider. After that I took 2 planes and some tape.

That wasn't my intention, but I do like green grass and blue skies to
