The ability to kite without the tug releasing automatically would be a great feature request for Condor_3. I'd also like to practice with a simulation of towing through wave related rotor. The first time that I recognized previously experienced Condor scenarios/sceneries in the real world, I was startled, 'that looks just like Condor'. Condor training would be beneficial.. In 2015 I ran the wing of a venerable_soaring_great who got trashed in rotor and broke the tow rope. Both pilots made it back to the airfield. Their account was harrowing. It can happen to anyone.
