BIGBIRD: i never heard of that particular model... sorry. but i think they make pretty good equipment tho. thats good that you can get Graupner in the states really good to hear.. as far as launching your plane.. im not sure what to tell you due to my lack of knowledge about that particular one. i taught myself how to fly and i started on a cox e-z-bee with a little .049 just screaming and i had to hand launch it what a pain... i vowed myself that i would never buy another foamie but that one severed me well may it rest in pieces... if you can send me a pic to my email and maybe i can come up with something a side and bottom pic would be great thanks but sorry i cant help right now.....
