I use this method on an old Dragonfly pop-pod boost glider a friend gave me. It works great. My kit had an engine hook, so I place the loop around the hook.
And another shout out to jeffyjeep!
This was several years ago, and Jeff identified this glider (it was mostly built but had no instructions, and I didn’t know what it was.) He sent me the decal for it.
