It needs some raised letter tires and a checked racing stripe.

That or a revver's logo on the door.

Funnier yet is I bought and rigged it specifically to be my Delta Dolly! I am gonna try it...Looks like fun anyhow.

I have my Augered Rossi-60 and APC 10x10 on this Phenom so I do not think a hand launch would suffice.

RE-SOLVED

Giant Aeromaster with Walker 3.2... [)]

Remove the wings, set your plane on the cabanes and go for launch.

Dolly can be taxied back to the pits under it own power!

Nice Crazy! You Crazy! LOL

I will try the plastic dump-truck next time there is no-one at the field....Or maybe at the next Revver's thing-

Here is the Dolly I made based on Cobratraxxas delta dolly design. (Mine is probably not as nice but I had 1/2 of the stuff....)

It sure is! That is where I measure my pipe stuff. Not to the widest part of the pipe but to the DENT in the pipe-

Hey FASTCRASHER, actually I have not....I am hoping to get out for a couple hours this weekend... I tested it in the drive-way but it is like a bad shopping cart, it turns right pretty hard- I need to make some bends I think before a take-off roll.

I have always wanted to get something reliable since one person hand launches are a challenge even for trimmed out aircraft. CObratraxxas had good luck with his so I thought I would throw one together.

I will keep you posted!
James
