I just purchased this plane today and it requires some decent speed for flight anyone willing to show me where to or how to construct a launch system and the plane hook up point I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
Robert

Do a search for MyZagi for a pvc bungee launcher. (or just try it here [link=http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=33639]Bungee Launcher[/link]
Just increase the upright sections so that it sits higher.

I built my own launch system out of electrical conduit ,two rails. after two launches the hook in the plane pulled out(too much force).In order to get more flights in,I decided to try ato hand launch with my friend.I have since hand launched by myself. depending on the power system shouldn't be a problem. make sure the release of the plane is level.I did not have to put a lotinto the throw. good luck!!
