5 of 5 My Minimax August 23, 2024
Reviewer: Curtis Colgan from Tucson, AZ United States  
Got the tug , assembled it, attached to Scully (9A) it worked good. Then I learned how to fine tune the tug to the needs of our plane.
This tug is fantastic. I’ve got an uphill climb to enter the hanger, this tug handles it with ease. No longer am I fighting to put the plane away.  I’m a very happy customer.
PS. The speedy mover is a smart move.

5 of 5 Great Tug April 5, 2024
Reviewer: David Stevens from Peyton, CO United States  
Received the tug within a week of placing my order. It was easy to assemble with the detailed directions provided. It was clear that it was already set up to work with my RV9A every thing fit perfectly. Had a little problem with the bushings on the tow pins on the RV9A which were the wrong size. I contacted Brandon at Minimax and he quickly sent me the correct bushings. Great customer service and a really great product.

5 of 5 RV8A Mover February 20, 2024
Reviewer: John Bussey from Harrogate, North Yorkshire United Kingdom  
Just got our Minimax Tug for the RV8A. After putting it together (easy job) it has made moving our aeroplane very simple and in particular up a slight slope into the hangar. Great piece of kit.

3 of 5 RV8A Tug February 6, 2024
Reviewer: Matthew Ford from Clayton, GA United States  
Axle stop / flanges were torqued and locktite with one wheel jammed against the side of the frame. Once axle was re-centered correctly everything worked great. ItÃÆ’¢â‚¬â„¢s a simple, moderately priced tool but better quality control is needed prior to shipping.

5 of 5 RV-8A tug January 31, 2024
Reviewer: Tim Fitzpatrick from Wauseon, OH United States  
Solid piece of equipment. Moves my RV very easily.  Assembly is not too difficult.  Will definitely save engine starts as I will be able to tow my plane to and from the fuel pit.  Would definitely recommend if you are tired of dragging your plane around by hand.

4 of 5 MiniMax Rv8A September 1, 2022
Reviewer: Dilger, Al from Bakersfield, CA United States  
Does a good job, I would like to see the lugs on the fork be adjustable which would make it a little easier to set up, also I think the small wheels should be standard rather than an option

5 of 5 Small tug, big performance! March 17, 2022
Reviewer: Shawn Easley from Cleveland Heights, OH United States  
I recently purchased a minimax tug -Milwaukee 20v- for my Vans RV7a. There's a slight incline into my hanger which made putting my plane away rather difficult and nerve-racking.  I could do it manually,  but it required me to rush-push the plane over the high-spot. I became increasingly concerned that the little sped-up/momentum I needed to get the plane over the hump could result in damaging the tail by not stopping in time.
The Minimax=problem solved! It's a very well designed and built product. Bravo to MM!

4 of 5 RV7A MINI TUG. A Nice Product-But... December 17, 2021
Reviewer: William Ippolito from Newport Beach, CA United States  
I am not sure if they sent me the correct parts? I ordered the RV7A extensions but no instructions were included.  A telephone query supposedly explained it but I could not identify any of the details quoted to me when I actually looked at the tug. However they didn't seem to be needed so I spent $24.95 plus tax etc for nothing.

5 of 5 Excellent Product September 1, 2021
Reviewer: RV-7A Pilot from Mt Vernon, IA United States  
The tug is very capable and removes the roadblock of moving my plane (RV-7A) back into its hanger. There are ramps over a 2” tall lip in front of hanger. Manually moving the plane was becoming a deterrent to flying. This tug eliminated this deterrent.  I’m a very satisfied customer and would recommend it to others.
