What have people found is the best way to transport Valkyries? I have two and just put the first one together. I've not glued the wings on yet as I was thinking it should help getting it about. Anyone else done this or have any other ideas?
Cheers, Mick

Do not glue the wings on. They should hold on just fine without glue especially if the sockets are covered with some layers of paint. As for transporting, my solution was to keep the original boxes and use them. The plane fits inside with the wings detached. Add some padding and you are fine to go.

I put magnets inside the wing root on mine. 3 on each side of the fuselage (two in the recess where the wing slots in, one in the little step-bit that the wing rests on at the front) and 3 in each wing.

Get two into a shoebox that way, with padding.
