Launching stooge
 

I remember reading in a magazine about a launching stooge used at combat events.
Is anybody familiar with one, and can you tell me exactly what it is?

Thanks,
Pat

Sorry, wrong forum.

You do not want a launching stooge which is used to hold a control-line model when no one is available to assist the pilot. You are looking for a catapault to toss the model into the air. Plans have been published and you might try a search here for information.

A search of catapaults resulted in 14 records of which none contained any info on a catapault.

Here is a small PVC catapult for electrics. Nice step by step instructions and pictures:
