Default RE: Plan needed for portable foldable field stand

Thanks guys The Spook is a lightly modified Pheonix Strega for the RC Pro warbird racing in the Silver class, its served long and hard for three seasons untill currently I had to stop traveling due to health problems, The tailskid worked fine on pavement or gravel/compacted earth. The airplanes were never taxied but always used throttled up race starts and all landings were done dead stick on purpose.

Here is also a pic with my gold racer a severely modified Strega with A YS 110 that we did run with up to 45% nitro at times.

These types of folding field stands we first used almost exclusively by the Q500 crowd but later adapted by many of the warbird guys as they are extremely versatile. Perfect height for working on you airplane from a lawn chair or in my case a wheelchair.

I now use them for club events where we may not be able to use the assembly tables due to changing the pit configuration for certain types of event.
