NO MORE HAND LAUNCHING RC EDF JETS | Consistent take offs guaranteed !
When an RC jet does not have retracting undercarriage it can save a huge amount of weight. The only disadvantage is in launching. Hand launch is very prone to error. You need a good strong arm and a consistent approach to get it right. In my long experience I do not trust many people to do hand launch and I've seen many crashes due to bad hand launches.

This simple launch dolly solves the problem. If the jet has the power to push it and the dolly has minimal resistance it's a lot lower risk method of getting the jet airborne.

Excellent conditions on a late Summer afternoon for flying this scratch built Jet Provost. The original plan was for smaller 50mm EDF power but this version is scaled up by 140% for 70mm EDF. It definitely works !
