For Michel and anyone else interested, I attach a brief
description of my dolly which has proved very satisfactory
for plane handling, working on the undercarriage and for
transport in a covered trailer. It was made originally for
another mono, but when he converted to a trike I bought
the trailer and fitted captive nuts to my plane by simply
drilling through the existing bolt holes in the dolly and
then bonding in nuts and largish washers on the inside of
the fuselage together with a bit of appropriate local
strengthening. As far as I can see none of the
measurements are particularly critical although of course
the fibreglass bearing surfaces need to be nicely matched
to the fuselage. Having said that you do need to design it
so that you can get it underneath the plane in its normal
wings on position. Can send further views + measurements
if anyone is keen to pursue it.
