028 tow ring should have released sooner 110 tow hook not correctly located 307 tow hook should have one NINETY degree bend in it. that's it.

THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY REGARDING THE PLAN FOR THIS MODEL VERY MUCH APPRECIATED

[@daviddavids2884]

yer hi-start needs improving. specifically, less length of stronger rubber. ratio of line - at least fifteen to one.
