The first TRUE glider here.

Yaw is pitch on the tractor plane!

Yaw left to go up and right to go down. Play gently and DO NOT TOUCH to the pitch before detaching the 2 planes with 1. You can also detach the cable with 2. If everything goes wrong detach the glider and let your tractor crash without shame while you recover with grace and ease. The glider is sweeeeeeet!

    Wow. This is epic. The glider even lands without blowing up XD i woulda thought, with one wheel... Also the tether looks sooo realistic. Love it.
