Can I Push on the Strut or Not..?

[SkyMac]

Definitely avoid pushing on the strut, there are 4 plastic type guides per strut which locate the cover over the strut, and all control cables run through these guides as well.

So if you break a trailing edge guide $180+. If you break a leading edge guide $360+ And you will need to undo all control cable turnbuckles and reset controls.

I broke one of each when assembling my plane, even with no push stickers I had to watch people as they go straight for the struts.

It’s a heavy bus to move when full of fuel, I bought an EZ40 power tow and now no one need touch the plane when I go to move it.

Save your back and plane, buy a powertow
