Stands work fine or you can stand the model on its nose with wheels against the wall. Or hang it from thetail with wheels against the wall. Either way, you're taking the load off the wheels.</div>

<div>I wrote about the wheel technique I use before....I use the lightest foam treaded wheels I can find (something around 8-10 grams for a 2 3/4") and ca a ring of bike inner tube on the foam. The wheels last much much longer even when flying off pavement.</div>
