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

Does anyone have his phone number?

Thanks

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

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
Wayne

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!

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?
