Yes. That is the product. I wonder what size we need to shift our Aquilla 1 wing under load pilot and pax and 50 l?

Thanks, for the help so far. I have now also seen two different trikes with an actuator fitted. It seams both work and the hang plates have been modified. Looks dodgy. As i have heard it also needs a mod approval from CAA. For now i have one being developed for my Aquilla. I don't want to mention any names at this stage.
