My first towing
Hi friends,
I want to share some pics about my first towing experience.
My glider is a Fly Fly dg 1000 with 2 mods: tow release and retractable landing gear.
my radio setup: futaba 9c + tm8 fasst & r617
Everything went well
I love this hobby because it has soo many different kind of flights that you cannot be bored!

RE: My first towing
Congrats on the successful aerotowing. It's a blast, isn't it!
A quick note about dihedral(or the lack of it)I assume the DG1000 is a CMPro or Flyfly or whatever they are calling the company. Why do they insist on manufacturing the sailplane without any dihedral(or even a bit anhedral[X(]) Same with the Lanier Husky. The wing is flat as a pancake. Both the full size 1000 and A1B have a fair amount of dihedral. Anyway, some of life's many questions..

Good call on the Husky id, most people think it's a cub.
The sailplane is a CMPro Ventus. Not the best flyer in the world but its fun to tow.
