    Default Transporting without transport kit?

    So it turns out I can only find the rear transport support arms and not the ones that attach near the gear and to the wing when folded. Are there any simple ideas to support it? I'm moving to the hanger which is about 35km away on not so nice roads on a flat bed tow truck.

    couple of pieces of electrical conduit will work. Flatten the ends and drill a hole in the right spot. Can fit to bottom of wing, and use short bolts that just go through the bottom of the spar for the wing connection. JImChuk

    Just thinking about it some more, and you may have to put a bend in the conduit at the bottom. Or a small offset plate. I think it will be obvious when you put a straightedge or your piece of conduit up in place to see how it's going to work. JImChuk
