Glider Winch

4,066 Cypher01  6.5 years ago
Auto Credit Based on Cypher01's Ventus 2B with speed takeoff

This is the remplacent of my old winch which isn't worked now. So, same instruction, to gos, juste pitch back and when you arrived at the vertical of the winch, release the glider by activate the first group. Take an angle of ~80° and wait to be at ~40mph more than stalling speed, then, you can take the good angle of flight. You can easyly set it as assembly to use it on your gliders, if you do that, please at least mentionned me on the post :) Good flights all ! (PS : The glider used is my Ventus 2B and with this winch, I went from the wright airport to the aircraft carrier without any problem ;) )
