Default Can someone give me some tips on flipstarting an engine.

Does anyone remove their wing to practice taxi'ing around? That might solve the problem of accidentally becoming airborne... I was considering doing this with mine when I finally get it built, especially if I end up with a tail-dragger (LT-25 or the like). Not to break in the engine, of course, simply to get used to ground-handling.
