RE: New Stand
The legs easily take a stake to hold it down as they are. We will be shipping these stakes with the stand.
I've been looking at a way to hold the airplane down to the stand for transport. Using the upright around the fuse doesn't look like a good option, at least in the front. I'm working on something to wrap around the gear. Simple Velcro will probably be the answer. The wheel supports will be adjustable in height and I think we made them long enough not to require forward/aft adjustment. Once adjusted properly the wheels will take most of the weight of the airplane rather than the fuse bottom.
On my Proline the clear canopy is right at the front upright. This wouldn't be a good option to run a strap over that. Not only would it possibly dent the canopy the way it's sloped the hold down would loosen during travel. Whatever I come up with must be easy to use, not damage the airplane and not interfere with the use of the stand.
We're looking at a street price of around $150 plus shipping.
