This is the last test of the bungee launching system prior to the maiden flight of the Raptor. Complete distruction :-) (as expected)

The Launch rails and release pedal are one unit and are adjustable for different planes. In this video I'm using two 10m sections of the Blue launch tubing from hobby king, attached to 50ft of line. Pull was 30lbs on my scale, but that may be a bit off...
