KOMPAK ISA tow model is a compact version of MASTER model .With only 38 kg , it's fixed directly on your car . Its conception is designed to Paragliders launches , but is possible to do Hang Gliding launches also using the static towing way at the begining of the whole operation . On both cases , leaving few meters of cable out of the drum before the begining of car motion , the Paraglider pilot inflates your equipment on the ground , the hang glider pilot after a few steps with the cable tensioned will be flying.

ATENTION : For Hang Gliding launches , as writen before , will be needed static towing bridles ,DO NOT USE THE SAME BRIDLE USED TO PLATFORM LAUNCH.

Any car can operate with KOMPAK.

The system operates using only a driver for the car and a pilot at foot launch position . It is not necessary a third person for tow operation . The launch running looks like moutain foot launch.

The road choice is very important . It should have a considerable lenght without any aerial obstacle crossing it ( eletrical wires ). It must have condition for the car run at a speed near 50 km/h . It is a good choice roads with clean fields at least one side of it for emergency landings .The wind direction should be against the car motion but weak cross winds are permitable .You should have all safety devices to use any kind of tow equipment . KOMPAK are also used on boats for on water flights. It has minimum maintenace and maximum safety .

On this device
the cable tension is self controled
