I have been very happy with my Northeast Sailplanes Hi-start.  I believe I
have the "Standard".  I get very high, strong launches, and the quality of
the parts, from the reel to the parachute, is excellent.

However, I don't think it will work in a field that small.  It probably
takes 300 or 400 feet unstretched, and I stretch it another 100 paces (a
couple hundred feet?).  A high-start takes a *lot* of space.  My next plan
will be electric just so I can use a smaller field.

I suggest calling NSP and asking about the length of their smaller "M" and
"S" high-starts, which they say will work for 2-meter ships.  They should be
able to tell you how small the field can be.  They are at (802) 655-7700.
