Anyone Try the Chore Warrier Electric Taildragger Tug?
Avionics, airplane covers, tires, handheld radios, GPS receivers, wireless Wx uplink...any product related to backcountry aircraft and flying.
I really need an electric tug and Sidewinders and the like are $3K-ish, the robot remote control one I think is at least 2x that. I stumbled across these guys:
https://chorewarrior.com/product/chore- ... e-spotter/and was wondering if anyone has tried this product. It is $1349, which is a lot easier to stomach than $3K +.

I've had one for about a year now. I like it, there are a few quirks, but overall I think the price justifies it. I made a post a while ago that I'll link below.
Customer service has been great. I had an issue with a wheel recently and they sent me a whole new set.
I'm on the lookout for a bigger wheel set. I think taller wheels would provide a better fulcrum in my case, but in other cases bigger wheels may interfere with the rudder assembly. Picture below for reference.

I've been running one for my Stinson since they came out. I like the low speed torque for precise movements. Excellent tug. I just purchased the nose dragger attachment just in case I ever need one. I leave mine attached to the airplane fully backed into hangar.
