Auto Credit Based on Katrina's hang glider

With the design of Katrina, here is a hang man towed by a plane.

This one a little bit TRICKY TO CONTROL, let me know how it is on mobile.

INSTRUCTIONS : take off with the left yaw.
Immediatly while airborn, use only the pitch to fly, but use it reversed, if you go down, the tow plane will go up!

Enjoy!

    I wanted to finish it last night but it was maybe a little too soon. It's not as worked as I intended to do... But on my side, with high grqphics I don't need the wheels. It's just so unintuitive to control the pitch, you must dive to pitch up and opposite for pitch down... It's mainly due to the fact that the glider is pretty heavy compared to the tractor plane.

    It's a wee bit Laggy, but not easy to fly is an understatement. Had to put wheels on the rope to stop it dragging along the ground and exploding, and the pitch up at takeoff is violent. Fun tho. Loving the mods to the hang glider too. Much more realistic. Thank you for building
