Default RE: CL model towing a glider?


ORIGINAL: Avaiojet

John,

Is that model a kit!

The tow thing?

The biggest issue would be keeping the lines tight. This could be enhanced by connecting the tow line to the port side of the fuselage? Instead of in the center.

I'm thinking about this line issue.

Now that's an interesting idea.

It wouldn't be scale, but if you figured out where the glider CG was in all 3 dimensions.......................... hmmmmmmmmm........ But you've also got aerodynamic drag to "pull", not just weight........ hmmmm
