Ok my planes are getting bigger and heavier and harder to launch! but I don't want to carry an extra launch platform either to the field!
Here, the foot release pedal system come to the rescue, and launching from the ground.
You must use a really hard plywood to make the base and top plate, fragile balsa wood is just a waste of time.
Link to 3d Printed dremel router to create the groove, if you can't, it's ok to mount directly onto the surface without the groovehttps://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2130473
Or if you prefer to buy one directly without printing : https://www.banggood.com/Drill-Carving-Rotary-Positioner-Locator-For-Dremel-Rotary-Tools-p-971078.html?p=DG23031123036201501P

At the field, i use 4 mega thick long screw and hammer it into the ground, so you gotta drill holes on the base plate too before going to the flying field.
You will need some M3, M4, M5 screws and nuts
For the hook to pull your plane, you can try this onehttps://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2719616
