I use an electric tow bar, battery powered that works very well. I used
the same tow bar for my 48 Bonanza.
I can't remember the name off hand, I'm going to the hanger tomorrow, I
'll get it. The handle is the battery case, about 20 D cell nicads
soldered together.
You have to drill and tap for two large 3/8 allen head screws in the square
part of the yoke. Then you flip the nose wheel backwards, attach the tow
bar, it drives the nose wheel with a big rubber V shaped wheel rubbing
against the nose wheel to move the plane around.
