Sidewinder for baron
I've only had it a few days but so far this thing is awesome. I had reservations about if it was string enough to move a baron b58. I shouldn't have worried. It is strong enough easily to move it and furthermore it's light and I can use it with one hand. I seldom leave reviews but I am impressed with this product so far.

Tow Bar
I ordered a tow bar for the Bonanza I was buying and paid for it but had not received it yet. When I went to pick up my plane the owner offered to give me his Redline power bar. I contacted Redline and they promptly returned my money. I was impressed and pleasantly surprised. Not too often do you have the privilege of dealing with such great people.

Sidewinder for Beeechcraft
This is an awesome product. It is certainly heavy at 22 lbs. and thus not for everyone, but it makes it possible to move a Beech 58P Baron effortlessly out of hanger and back into the hanger when there is no lineman available. I would recommend this wonderful accessory for most. One key point. It is essential that you get the anti torque arm on the sidewinder fully attached to the attach point for the tow bar on the front gear and also the wheel adapter fully inserted into the front gear wheel axle. Otherwise you will be very disappointed in the outcome.. Watch the video at the following link https://vimeo.com/32924330 , it really is that easy.

Sidewinder for Beechcraft
Worked perfectly on Bonanza. Great product right out of the box. Solid....seems well-designed and made. Moved plane easily, can vary speed and direction. Very intuitive and simple to use. What an improvement over the old gas-powered tugs, my own straining, asking others of help. Folds and fits easily in baggage area, weighs 24 lbs., so it won't jack too much with you W&B. I love it. Downsides itself gets 5 stars, but overall experience gets 4 stars. Downsides outweighed by the product itself. No instruction manual, so had to figure it out. Website has video showing its use on a Piper, noting the connection between this tug and the plane is similar but significantly different between the Piper and Beechcraft. Took a few tries before I figured it out. Works well. Glad I have it. Communications with the company left a little to be desired...felt like I was bothering them a bit with 2 routine questions. Delivery delayed.

Sidewinder for Beech
SUPER- well-constructed. Has a beefiness and hefty that lets you know it ain’t here to mess around. Simple: Like you and I would make if we had the skill. The only thing I could knock it for is the grab-handle (and I’m gonna butcher trying to describe this) on the “middle” piece under the drill could kinda cut into your hand if you were gonna carry it for a mile. I had to run to the plane when it showed up, even though I had nowhere to go, and it moves my chunky V-tail just fine.
