What is pizzabox style?
I have just ordered my first flying wing and have noticed in the discussion groups that some pilots launch their wings "pizzabox" style. Can someone explain the technique? I have seen videos where pilots launch a wing by holding it from the bottom and heaving it forward, but I don't think that's "pizzabox" style!!

Grabbing it on the top somewhere where you can get a hold of it like the fuel tank for example, hold it out away from you, reving the motor up and just let go

All of the above posts are correct (except for the pepperoni 
).
Basically their talking about releasing an RC plane that has far more power than weight. Such as my PQHOR (which I love to launch PBF style).
My brother was able to get a great pic of me right after the release:
