New winch height record
"bagmaker" schrieb im Newsbeitrag
...
A typical winch launch yeilds about 1/3 of the runway/field available,
this is a fantastic result, Bill!
Perhaps we should be measuring the launch as a percentage of field
length, then there would actually be a record available for everyone to
shoot for, regardless of locality.
So...
With a runway of 3100m and a launch of 1718, the current known record
is 55.42%
Get out there and break it!!
950m steel cable + 350hp winch + 20km/h wind + ASK21 = 750m or 78%.
More high was possible, but airspace class C begins at 750m above our
airfield so I had to release the cable.
I think the ASK21 gets the best high on winchlaunch. Our DG1000 always gets
25% less high.
