Default Chuck and fly?

Hi all,

Ive got a funny request.
Does anyone ever fly off theire flat rooftop? [&:]

Ive got about 10*10 yards of space to take off and land, but a conventional approach and take-off isnt possible due to a fence being all around it. So I was first thinking of an IFO, but I think that thing is a little prone to nicks and tears (correct me if im wrong!!), so I went looking on. Then I bumped into some fanfold planes, but I was unable to get that stuff anywhere in holland, so something like the drenalyn is gonna be a hard bargain to do aswell.. It has to be something easily catchable or something tough enough to just stall above my roof and drop onto it.

Does anyone know of a fun little plane that you can just chuck up and hit the air from off my roof?

Reason for this is because I need an hour to get where I normally fly, because I have to walk part of the way on a sandy road with pounds of junk on my back and in my hands. And I want something to "get my fix" without dragging tons of stuff out to the field.


Cheers,
Sven
