The stability and reproducibility of todays laser-plasma generated electron beams is not comparable to the performance of conventional machines. Within the LAOLA Collaboration, the University of Hamburg and DESY work closely together to combine university research with the expertise of a large and well-established accelerator facility. On behalf of the LAOLA collaboration, we will discuss the experimental programm driven by the recently commissioned 200 TW laser ANGUS. It drives two beamlines, REGAE and LUX, to study external injection of electrons from a conventional gun into a plasma stage, as well as plasma-driven undulator radiation. We provide an overview on the commissioning of the facility and its experiments. As an outlook, we will discuss the experimental strategies in Hamburg towards a first proof-of-principle FEL experiment using plasma-driven electron beams available today.
