Asked the question in the scale section, but in carrier will it hold 100 pound pull test?

 The new 2.4 item is now on ebey @ $99+ plus postage.  Item looks well built. I bit the bullet and ordered one. I will let you know more when it arrives

Found the item using, control line handle, advanced search,  under completed sales. Pull tested to 50 lbs, which I think is a "little light" for carrier.
Thanks

Looks good

Wayne,
Your right about the pull test. The home made " Bischoff "  design will take a carrier pull. Mine will take at least 90 and probably more, but then I need a designated puller.

I hate to say this but if we don't watch out with these R/C handle conversions we are going to have big trouble. Has anyone reviewed pull test procedures on this handle? I remember a whole bunch of B/S about pulling safety thongs and J Roberts handles correctly. It took forever to get the procedure standardised somewhat and now we have this.
Thanks

Yeah, I agree about the pull tests.  I seen that handle on the bay and when I seen 50 pound pull test I thought he has not pulled a Class I or Class II carrier plane.   Profiles are a different story as I don't think they require a max pull of 100 pounds.  But, I will have to go look at the rules again.

Doc
Profile is 20g's. 4lbs x 20 = 80lbs max. Most of mine pull at about 60 lbs. Class I and Class II 25 g's

Hi all I was told by Ralph Saxton that they were tested and pulled 65 lbs. This came from the horses mouth!

[Joe Just]

I ordered mine on 11/2. It came today!  So far I am really pleased.  More to follow as I take some time to get more familiar with it.  I will note how light it is and how nicely it is put together. More later. I think it will be a selcome addition to HELP our Carrier hobby/sport make some gains in participants.

Here's two pictures of the newly offered 2.4 handle3.  I really like it!  After studying it for some time the only minor negative point is the line clips holes. I think I will enlarge them to fit the heavy clips I use. Other than that, the quality is there!  I pull tested it to 80 pounds with no problem.  Also the transmitter batteries were included.

I see the grip is at an angle.  How do you do the pull test?
