port wing rigging dolly: 2014-10-31
Lumix DMC-FT1
The port wing supported on its rigging dolly. The dolly has been moved inwards from its normal position near the tip to raise the wing slightly, and a wooden wedge has been inserted in the scissors action (which allows the wing to tilt to vertical for storage) to get the correct angle of incidence. The wing clamp is left unlocked for easy movement.
