Stall spin during aero tow? Std cirrus

It goes without saying that one must communicate their desired tow speed
with the tow pilot (especially when faster than normal) and request more

That said, it is easier said than done at the high density altitude in
the
west, especially with non powerful tow planes. Releasing from tow is
often
not a good option when you just lifted off at the far end of the runway
fully ballasted.

Hi sorry for the thread creep
I have just Changed to a Ventus 2c after 1500 without flaps.
As briefed I roll in negative flap and change to +2 when I am sure that I
have aileron control.The tug pilot knows all this and tows me at 70+knts.
Am I now at the flap limit for positive flaps?
Last flight I was happy up to 70 but above I chose to go to 0.
