Order placed!
Just ordered a set. Won't be ready to install for a while, but taking advantage of the introductory price.

Looks great! A few questions.
Vince,
You have solved a problem I have faced many times with the cooler! I need a few more pictures and explanation before committing! How do the tracks attach at the end of the rail? Do i need to cut off the end of my current track before the delrin pin block? One last question, how do the wheels maintain their distance apart as the fuselage curves back? Is this what the wheel spacers accomplish?
Thanks!

It looks like a great idea and well made. I just have trouble buyg a product from a dude who paints his plane to look like a cow.

I need everybody to stop coming up with cool mods 10 days before my DAR inspection. I need to focus! Will be ordering soon though, I'm sure...

NOW YOU COME UP WITH THIS!!!! I would have been your first customer but because we didn't have this mod, we decided to build an RV14.

Sorry, I don't have photos here. Blake is going to get a few better photos for the web site. There's just not enough hours in the day sometimes!

Screws and a small aluminum strap attach the ends of our tracks to one of the bulkhead flanges in the back of the baggage compartment. Very easy. Very simple.
No. You do not cut off the end of your existing track, but you do cut a "window" in the top surface of that track. Again, very simple to do with a Dremel tool cut off wheel.
The old and new tracks are parallel, aside from the S-curve. There is no affect from the fuselage curvature.

Hooo ha ha ha.... The cowbird was a product of builder Wayne Ray's farm background. You can't beat it for the attention it gets on the ramp.
Interestingly, I can't install the Supertracks on my plane, which has a flopper!
The idea came from our work with the Rocket guys. The F1 Rocket slider uses parallel tracks, but doesn't have the S-curve.
