I just couldn't look at a ready to fly sailplane, so i went to the field with my dad and we tried to get it to altitude with a kite string and my dad running...the plane crushed and the stabilizer broke . Right now I'm gonna go try to fix it.

Hi everyone, I really need hi-start for 77!QUOT! sailplane, I am 14 and cant get a job, and i don't even want to ask my dad for anymore money because he we just came to USA and its hard, plus he already works 2 jobs (14 hours a day) to pay off my med bill. So i have this sailplane !QUOT!Raiser!QUOT! i got the kit for only $40 bucks at local hobby store i though it was pretty cheap so i got it, what i didn't realize that to finish it (monokote, sealing iron, and some small things) added up to another $50 but since i already spent so much time in the glider my dad decided that i should finish it anyway, but i don't want to ask him for hi-start too because i know he cant afford it, and the model turned out very nice (no one stepped or fell on it, and my brother didn't even break it!!!)
so everything is smooth and nice. So if anyone has a spear hi-start i can use to launch my glider that would be great.

Thanks
