More prop clearance,


Looks like keeping the tail down is interesting at 1:30 in the video.
What does the POH ask you to do with the stick?

If you use it to hold down the tail and hit a bump, then how high can the tail bounce before entering lawn mower mode?

Technically self launch, but with grass or tiger country, the tow line didn't look all that long and having the batteries full seems wise.
