THE STAND ALSO WORKS WELL FOR CARRYING THE PLANE IN YOUR VEHICLE...PHOTO #4. THE REAR SUPPORT SLIDES ON RAILS TO ACCEPT SHORT AND LONG FUSELAGES. IT HAS A SMALL TRAY THAT HOLDS SCREWS, WING BOLTS AND TOOLS. THE FOUR UPRIGHT SUPPORTS ARE ADJUSTABLE AND SLIDE IN AND OUT TO FIT YOUR FUSELAGE WIDTH. THEY LOCK IN DESIRED POSITION WITH A WING NUT.
