Not only that, but if your plane is ever tilted at that angle as you

David,
Launching without turning the transmitter on is a symptom of a greater

For over 25 years, I used a system that prevented launching unless
both the transmitter and receiver were own. Basically, it was a
capture tow hook that had to be opened by radio to hook the towline
to the tow hook and then latched by radio. It was an EK remote
release tow hook with a pin at
Gentlemen, I would like your feedback on something I created last

Looked like Michael is right. According to Profili, it's VERY similar to
the RG-15. I checked it out at re*sqrt(CL)=100k and 150k. (That is,

when flying at Cl of 1) The two lines are just about right on top of
