BeechTalk - BT - FS: Redline Aviation Sidewinder for Bonanza SOLD

Username Protected · **Posted:** 11 Sep 2023, 11:47

3 years old. Used about twice a month with my F33A. We are selling the BO (boo hoo) so no longer need the Sidewinder. It is an awesome product. Well engineered and built. Comes complete with 24V battery and charger. No carry bag is included.

According to the Redline site, they have a 4-5 week backlog on orders. Aircraft Spruce shows a price of $2,050. I have it listed on FB for $1800 but will sell it here for $1,700 with $50 going to support this forum. The buyer will have to arrange shipping or pickup OR I'll drive up to 100 miles to meet you to deliver the unit.

We live in Northern Illinois not far from Kenosha Wisconsin. 512-850-8339 text or voice

Add sales tax and shipping and you're over $2,200.

Does it work with other Beechcraft?

According to the Redline Aviation website, this model works with all the Beech singles and some of the Beech twins HOWEVER I went through the order process to see what shipping to my location (Northern Illinois) would cost and it had me select my Beech model. This implies that there are some differences in how it is setup for different Beech models. I bought mine to use with an F33A so I'm sure it'd be good with any Bonanza.

It is the buyer's responsibility to make sure it will work with your model Beech. Call Sidewinder to be sure!

Attached is a snip from the Redline Aviation website, a snip of the shipping cost ($72.89) and here is a link to the website. I could not tell if they charge sales tax. ACS sales tax would be $164.

Aircraft Spruce had cheaper shipping ($43.66) but for sure charges tax ($164 for Illinois) total $2257.66.

My brother has one for his F33A; worked great when he used it to tow my B55.

My apologies to everyone who has contacted me. I was gone for 2 weeks and had much less time to handle this than I expected. The unit is still available, and I am going through PMs and posts to get names and locations and will have a decision on who I will send it to very soon.

Thank you all for your patience.

John,

Thanks again for meeting me at Galt today. Pleasure meeting you even though it was brief. Wish we could have snagged breakfast and spoke some more. We are looking forward to using this to help in and out of the hangar.

Kris

Kris - it was a pleasure meeting you and your boys today. Sorry the visit was short. Perhaps we'll run across each other again sometime.

To everyone else, the Sidewinder is sold. I will put sold in the title of the thread (as soon as I remember how to edit the title!)

John
