:thumbup: Henry W. said He would outfit his telemaster to carry up gliders.
At some point I'm going to try a JTO. :yickes: Two D Rocket engines at 20 deg.
:hyper: If the wing handles the stress, I'll try a pair of E's.
(I have some F & G's But I sure they would rip the wings off.)
Robert S. - May 12, 2008 09:10 PM (GMT)
:pilot: I found a video of a glider with a 20 deg. JATO take off.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIcAXrHRY7M&feature=related :wub: I 'm thinking why not use a rocket pad with a rod. Just shoot it at 80 or 90 deg. angle.
Something like this.
