It doesn't appear as sturdy as my Fade-To-Black style pad, but folds up much more compact. So probably not stable enough for HPR, but as long as it's solid enoughh for F & G flights, it would be a good bring-your-own pad for local launches and (T)ARC flights. I wonder if it could be adapted to use a mini-rail?

Hi Paul,
You're welcome.
The rail is one sided. The plastic pieces are, from what I can tell, glass filled Nylon; they
have that look and feel.
