Launching a RC Sailplane

RC Sailplanes can be launched by the use of a high start, hand toss,
winch or aero-tow. This picture is showing the use of a winch to launch.
Many glider pilots live in areas where large ground features like hills, cliffs,
dams, mountains, sand dunes and other large ground structures are perfect for
flying waves of rising wind. This is known as "Slope Soaring".
