PS are you sure there's no hangar available locally? There are two aeroclubs, ISTR, did you talk to them? In local language?
There’s more life in a pikeys vest than there is around here. The problem is there are no fixed tie downs, I’ve got it on the grass using “the claw” tie down system with some ropes. I’ve got it cocked 45 degrees from the wind with the upwind wing with 2 ropes on it, i think if I had it direct into wind with the gusts exceeding the rotate speed it wouldn’t be long before this thing was gone without me. P.S. thanks for the offers of help,but it’s just a matter of sticking around to see if it holds.
