RE: Why not transport your fully assembled aircraft to the field?
I haul my 50cc yak all the time like that. and have hauled my python and my 35%yak a couple times. Usually I just leave em assembled in the trailer but somtimes I don't want to drag 30 feet of trailer with me.. I just grab one and put it in the back of my pickup and go.. I have a box to put the landing gear on and strap the landing gear to 50feet of log chain coiled up in the bottom of the pickup.. it isnt going anywhere. I do tape the surfaces with blue masking tape before I go down the road. You don't want the surfaces to flap freely in the breeze- that will strip the servo.. I have a friend who made some nice control locks out of the flexible steel straight edges with some padding on them. He drilled holes in them and clamps em over the surfaces to hold everything in place. But he goes 25miles or so on the freeway to fly..
