Watch my new Piper Pawnee towing my mates glider into the air. This is my first aerotowing attempt with my new tug plane. So there are still things to improve...

  • Do you have a towline release mechanism in the Pawnee?

    I'm thinking of buying this model for towing purposes.

  • @steve1mac I added one myself.

  • where is this at?

  • North East Germany.

  • it looks as if it was real after it took off into the air

  • Thats what it should do...

  • The takeoff was beautiful and amazing to capture it on video from that angle... Played around with RC towing a bit over the last 25 years... The last time was with a foam wing behind a standard .40cu Scanner Rc... used "Velcro" fastener for both ends of the tow release... Worked a treat (the KISS principle)... don't know if it would work for these larger models... the trick is to climb like a homesick angel once established in a good stable position after takeoff.

    Thanks for sharing this video.

  • IN THE SNOW!!
