Default Wing-support for Duo one-person assembly

Hi Dave

I bought Paul Cordell's Nimbus 3D a couple of years or so back and it
had a very basic wing rigger with it. I one man rig without any
problems. It uses a mechanical screw height adjustment but once it is
set it hardly needs any fiddling. To get the fine adjustment for pin
alignment I adjust the fuse up or down with the fuse cradle jack(Cobra
trailer). I've seen people with much fancier and more complex gear have
more trouble, you just gotta have the knack

Although the Duo is quite high at the outer end of the inner panel I
wouldn't think you would have too much trouble with a well set up wing
rigger

Weather permitting I'll get you some photos tomorrow and email them to
you

Cheers
Colin


Thanks Colin !
