It was constructed after significant discussion. The Fuse rolls on from the front with the 2 outer front panels doubling as wing tip supports and main wheel ramps Note the side view which shows the main wheel position … is at the max legal distance from the back. Does mean the drawbar weight is high needing weights at the tailgate Note also the front wheel stand AND the jack thing which is used to lower the front to the ground to load the Fuse. The 2 small metal main wheel wells The elevator slides into a fitting cradle and is located between the Fuse and the wing on one side. Improvements could include A frame /crane thing right at the back that could be designed to lift the wing root end up to clear the trailer side and move horizontally so it could be rested on a sawhorse. The tip end can be lifted easily by one person. A better system at the back to include 2 vertical pins for the main spar pin holes. But overall, I am really pleased with it as it gives me a much better level of independence when hanger space is at a real premium Driving stability is “good” reducing the drawbar weight is important (around 150Kg or so) but at 90Km/hr it was quite stable. Have a great Christmas and a equally great new year Could somebody confirm this email went out OK Best regards from New Zealand Ian Williams --------------------------------------------------------------------- You are subscribed to the Dimona Owners Group mailing list.
