Description

SETA-Modelltechnik yellow silicone tube 8 mm diameter 15 m long F3-RES legal high-start. Both ends have connection rings ready fitted.

Compete the high start by adding up to 100 m of 0.7 mm monofilament nylon fishing line. An F3-RES high start has a max unstretched length of 115 m. However if this is too long to fit in your field it is fine to shorten it down as required.

Fix the high start by attaching the yellow silicone tubing to a dog walker's stake using a mountain climber's carabiner (not supplied).

Then add the nylon monofilament, using a strong fisherman's swivel.

Use our pennant at the model end and a curtain ring to engage in the model's tow hook.

F3RES High Start rubber

Needed a replacement rubber as my old one wasn't pulling as well. This one arrived quickly along with several other items and was placed in service right away and has allowed me to find tune my launches on my Tetra F3RES sailplane.

This is the RIGHT stuff!

Neil always makes sure he sells the best quality. He was out of stock when I first ordered, but when it finally came in it was worth the wait. Only the best

Perfect

I like that it is complete with ends ready to tie on my monofilament. Shipping was fast and well packed.

Outstanding Service!

Placed an order for several of the high start tubing sets on a Monday evening and they arrived on my doorstep Thursday, three days later in Colorado, USA. Astonishing!

Hi-Start Silicon Tube

Bought this to replace one that had been lying around for a long time and had become dozed. This looks of good quality and looking forward to testing it out. Item arrived very quickly!

F3RES High Start Silicone Rubber

We have come to rely on this particular high start rubber because of its consistency and longevity in use. Add to that the fact that it comes to us with eyelets for hooking up already installed, and it is an excellent bargain. To top things off, we get the deal with Neil at Hyperflight, so we know our order will be filled promptly and correctly.

No brainer

I'm back from the flying field where I tried the F3-RES High Start with a 800gr obsolete Graupner Dandy glider. My first time with a High Start + 80m of 25kg line. Streched the whole to about 35 yards/meters. Perfect launches. Note for the newbies like myself: be ready to keep the model on track with the rudder if needed.

I can give Neil 5 stars for his service, I am still yet to try the Hi start, but it came well packaged and made the journey to Australia in very quick time!

Very happy

Used it for the first time last night. I’d say the performance is on a par with the surgical rubber bungee that I used for many years.

Great Service

As always, great service. Highly recommend Hyperflight.

Reach for the Skies?

It's been a very long time since I renewed my 'bungee' Hi Start system. The new Hyperflight rubber looks to be of good quality. It's so difficult to find decent silicone nowadays, I've yet to put it the test.

Does the job

I decided to make an F3-RES spec histart as I plan to build an F3-RES model in the future. For now I'm using it to launch a classic 100" all balsa soarer. Struggles a bit, could probably do with a second length of rubber, but for now it's good enough.


 Review by:

Nice piece of kit

Nice stretchy rubber at a good price with next day delivery too. Only slight negative is that I found the very well thought out ends not quite strong enough. OK on initial stretches but failed on what I was intending to be a full stretch. Surprisingly consistent, however - took 50 paces then line/rubber joint parts company. Temporary field fix to that end then try again. Stake end comes loose at exactly 50 paces. Took home did a bit of beefing up and OK since.
Would I buy again? Certainly.

Just what is needed for hi-start launches

It seems difficult to source appropriate lengths of the right grade of silicone rubber tubing elsewhere, but this items is exactly what's needed for hi-start launches. Good, well attached terminations, too.
