What the initial tension, measured in G that you consider ideal on initial launch? Are you afraid to answer this question that I am now asking of you for the third time already? You can't complain about others not providing data (which is not true) if you refuse to even begin to do so yourself. So put up already. Ahem... Tension is measured in Newton, not in G. G == acceleration, or m/s^2. Yes, the forward acceleration of the glider in the initial takeoff run can be measured in G, but the connection between the cable tension and acceleration involves glider and cable mass and wind, so there's no one-to-one correspondence.
