What kind of speed does a model aircraft usually lift off at on avarage? seen quite a lot without a u/c launched from trollies or carts and this got me thinking that the aircraft power unit has to move both cart and aircraft to attain lift off speed then I remembered I have a large and quite fast off-road car about 30'' long in the loft doing nothing and thought of chopping the top off and building a launch cradle on top. One person drives the car in a straight line while the other controls the aircraft and as the cart would be self-powered the launch would be a lot quicker with less drain on the a/c batteries, in theory it would work but would it be practical?,
