Outdoor Hand Launch Glider
There's more to the art of HL Glider building and flying than some people imagine—that is, if the HL Glider is really going to perform. Our presentation is of a prize-winning design, and the authors detail their techniques for construction and flight adjustments.

THE CHALLENGER, as designed and developed by premier Canadian modeler Ron Higgs, can and does challenge any other competition Outdoor Hand Launch Glider (OHLG). In this article we will give construction tips, trim adjustments for one particular style of launch, some solutions to trimming problems, and Craig will show how to get more power and consistency on the launch. This is not a beginner's model, but any modeler with a little experience should be able to handle it. Try it; no OHLG is that tough!
