Thanks mate, yeah especially when u have to go up a small hill. We are quite happy with how well it dampens the forces, my thought is it lessen the strain on the plane.
Just to add my 2c worth. I’ve fabricated an aluminium “long V” that just clamps naturally to the nose gear of my Musketeer. I’ve also upgraded from a Murray’s 18hp ride on to an old Toro. Twice the weight and three times the power. I needed this as I have to push the plane back in to the hangar uphill and sometimes on wet grass.
That is how I move my Maule. Better than paying thousands for some high tech machine with a bunch of electronics which will break sooner than later. There are a lot of airplane owners who have more $$ than common since. Also a show of how rich they are. That's OK
