torsion suspension stay away from springs

g
I agree with "g's" recommendation of a trailer with torsion suspension. I have owned a number of trailers for my pattern planes, warbirds, etc and the "easiest riding" trailer is one with the torsion suspension. About 19 years ago I bought a small 10' long Wells Cargo triler with torsion suspension and have never regretted it. I still have it and it still works very well. My experience is that the torsion suspension is much easier on the planes than a sprung trailer. Prior to that I had built my own and they never towed or rode very well.
