Robotow Cordless Towbar

When its friction drum is held against the nosewheel, the Robotow allows one person to move singles and twins such as the Aztec, Baron and Cessna 421. Its motor has a reverse-direction switch, and a trigger on the pistol-grip handle controls speed. Weighing less than 30 pounds, it measures 48 x12 inches. An axle adapter, sold separately, is required. It's available for a variety of aircraft without wheel pants, including the Cessna 150, 172 and 175; the Piper Cherokee, Comanche and Apache; the Beech Bonanza Baron, Travelair and Debonair; and the Bellanca, Navion and Riley, to name only a few. It will not work with the Seneca, Arrow, Aerostar and Lance, among others. 

Price: $1,599. Available at www.sportys.com.
