I always liked the Japanese stands they show in there websites and spent months trying to find and buy one. When I did I found them to be prohibitively expensive. I also didn't care for the fact they wouldn't adjust for different fuse width's. So after a few months of scratching my head and cutting wood and throwing most of it away I've come up with what I think is a great stand for our purposes.

I've designed the stand to work as a bench tool or a field assembly/workstation. It's tall enough to work on our models standing up or sitting down. It's strong enough to use to start the plane with but I wouldn't want to do a full power run unless someone was helping hold the airplane.

The design is done so this stand can be used in a trailer or van as a transport base as well. It collapses down to 3" thick, weighs 15 pounds and can be set up in under 10 seconds.

The plan is to possibly make a short run of these if there is any interest. I will be sending out a few to Beta test.
