Are you sure we are not related? That sounds like me...

I figured that out fairly quickly, when I did the first gasser conversion (a .50 heli).
I had a trailer to transport my stuff to the field, and it did not really matter whether I brought only the methanol heli's or the big (2 metre rotor, 24 lbs) scale gassers, I always needed that trailer because of all the stuff I brought.
Then that ,50 came along, and I noticed that I could hold ALL that I needed in the trunk of my tiny Opel Corsa...
