Default RE: "Doubledge" biplane?

OK, here's a tip that my buddy and I just discovered when we had to dissasemble the Pitts, again.
We unhooked the flying wires, and removed the 2 fasteners from the middle cabane. Stood the plane on it's nose, and removed the 2 nylon bolts from the bottom. While one person holds the fuse, the other disconnects the wing servos, rotate the fuse 90 degrees, and slide the wings over the tail feathers, as a complete unit.
Saves removing 8 fasteners, but you need a friend to help. Cut's the time down from 30 to 4 minuets.
Huge difference....
I have recently discussed this with a friend or 2, the guy who comes up with a quick release method on Biplanes will sell a set to every person who owns a bipe, period.
