Thanks for all the advice I received on doing the discus launch. My problem was how I wrapped my fingers around the launching peg. Now, I just bend my fingers 90 degrees and the plane releases straight everytime. Before I was hooking around the peg, thinking I could straighten my fingers just before release. The difference is amazing, at least twice the altitude, sometimes I would think even higher. Bill Kuhl RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
