Handlaunching techniques
I have a global 1/12 scale messerschmit with a .15. It has landing gear on it. I want to hand launch it instead of rog. What technique do I use. I am not at all familiar with hand launch of this type of model.
Is it under hand or overhand? Do I run with it first? It seems to to need a lot of speed to get in the air. |
Handlaunching techniques
I am by no means an expert but I can tell you the method that works for me.
I am right handed so I hold the TX in my left hand and launch with my right. I hold the fuse from the top , just in front of the canopy and give her a good underhanded toss. I then get my right hand back to the Tx to guide her out. There is a thread on this forum with pics that show Demon launching his warbirds. Good Luck, Dane McGee |

Thanks for the thread Demon. Maybe I'll show up at the June 14th
meet with some of the Milford, CT. club. Then we can get a first hand demo of your launch. Rich |
Great!
C'mon over! And, don't forget to bring some planes!
See ya there, D |
