  • Hello CZcamsrs,
    I recently bought this TWM Piper Super Cub from my club buddy Nick.
    The plan was to start glider towing at our club, so I needed a beefy plane.
    Nick has bought another even bigger one, so this one was a nice plane for me. A glider tow and release system was also installed.
    The Piper had an EME 70cc Boxer engine, but it was not really powerful enough to tow beefy gliders.
    So a DLA 112cc Boxer engine was installed to be able to tow bigger gliders.
    Last weekend was the very first day that my buddy Nick and I could test the new setup.
    Nick had recently bought a really beautiful 4.6m/181" MDM-1 FOX aerobatics glider and in this video we basically had 2 maiden flights in one :)
    UPDATE on MDM-1 FOX SPECS: I thought it was a 4m/158" wingspan, but the FOX is 4.6m/181" wide!
    I hope you enjoy the video!

    This vid encourages me to build a large glider, perhaps a Minimoa.
