Since I’ve use this method, I have not crash to wing . knock on wood… this is by far the best instructional video and the only way to launch a wing don’t get me wrong. It’s awkward to wrap your mind around but once you do it and see it just fly off you’ll know. And never really worry about a wing launch again thank you for the knowledge man happy flying.
Pawel: These are stellar suggestions for launching either a small or large wing safely & easily! Now I'm prepared for success! Perhaps your most useful & well explained/demonstrated video I have watched so far! You are the king of smart, funny demos!
I agree with Pawel! When trowing over the head (last method) there is a risk to hit FPV goggles with your hands. It happened to me, one antenna was broken as a result. Use AUTOLAUNCH and put the goggles afterwards.
Beside CoG check, a control direction check is a very good pre-launch check. Know a number of pilots that have launched a wing with ailerons, or elevator reversed. Propeller direction is good check too, much less an issue typically verified on the bench. Next series, "How to - Land ". 😂
I have just built my first flying wing. I've attempted to launch it about four times each time resulting in a crash. I will attempt to launch it again using the information from your video Thanks for the video.
thanks @@FPVUniversity . why is your UK postage so expensive? there only seems to be US/CA/International shipping options. this "This Old Tony" t-shirt, for example, has UK/EU/US/International options & is waaay cheaper.
@@FPVUniversity ok, no worries, I figured it out, the wording is just Very Bad. I know you're not printing them in your garage & taking them to the post office :D
Fantastic tips, Pawel! Thanks a lot! 😃 Question: did you ever tried to put landing gear on a wing so you can take off from the ground? Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
ZAGI WING MANUAL INSRUCTED ME TO USE "PIZZA CARRY " TOSS METHOD , FROM THE NOSE . THUMB AROUND TOP OF WING AND FINGERS ON BOTTOM. ALLOW FOR GOOD STRAIGHT AHEAD TROWS .HAVE USED IT UP TO 2M WINGS. . lick your finger tips if you have grip issues.
well, why don´t you guys just turn your hand around grabbing the wing with the thumb on the buttom side. Than you can lay it into the wind from the outside, same as you do in the video but you have alle the dangerous parts away from your body. With your technique the wing is much to close in front of you.😉

7:07 "Lets assume I have a 14 incher" haha you wish 🤣
90% of the time it works every time! Good video instruction as always Pawel.
I finally learned how to launch a wing or most planes by hand using the Flite Test video a while back. Good info here Pawel the Great.
singlehand/backhand is my preferred method, nice explanation, thanks

Would a rite wing spec be good for a first wing?
I would rather go with something cheaper from china

Man. Scared to fly my first Wing. Lol
I loved it, great tips.
The sun there seems good to me, Is it very cold there?
Where I live? No, not really, but you know, it all depends :)

Sure. Tees, mugs, you name it :) bit.ly/3thXEOZ

@@andy1514-g1q It's not mine shipping cost. I have no control over it

I overhead throw my larger wings all the time. Can't compromise safety.
Fantastic tips, Pawel! Thanks a lot! 😃

I do not have a field flat enough for that. So no
5:41... Wear a crash helmet with a face shield... LOL
wing wing z84 can be throw, but when throwing y must not have any throttle at all because there is huge risk that propeller will cut/slice y fingers.
Do you have any knowledge on h7 targets for inav please. Thank you
Lets do a video on how to do a good auto launch
I think I would launch via sling-shot ^^

That also is a viable method
Best way to launch... autolaunch, no ? ;)
Throwing is old-fashioned! ruclips.net/video/464i4jmelbE/видео.html

This guy talks............. A lot!
