I just maiden my new avanti a few days ago, few flights in grass later the steering for nose gear broke in half the thing that goes from servo to wheel. Can I just glue the nose wheel straight and not use the steering? I also ordered a Bose gear brace. Thanks

I thought foam tires tend to get flats if used to hold model during standby (99% of its lifetime in reality)
I hang mine to prevent it, and to drop it in and out of car more easily without powering on everything (TX,mdoel) for transport
magnetic hooks are a great thing, because no drilling is needed (forces up to 20+kg are avail at aliexpress)

So are your rafter beams wood and did you just drive screws for the magnets to attract to? And those are strong enough for the avanti? And bigger? It's a very straightforward way of storing and accessing the planes quick and probably minimize the hangar rash. Nice!

Yes its my underground car garage with second floor above car with stairs, made of metal beams and wood flooring.
1 magnet can hold 2 avantis no problem, but I put 4 magnets for 1 avanti to keep strips apart and removal is easy, just take 1 magnet down(tilt it so it releases 5x easier) and let it down with strip, so tail gets free and nose just slides back out of the loop in front.
I believe simple metal plate can be screwed in wood beam and magnets will hold, its magnet force, not the size of metal part that holds it(if metal is not smaller than magnet piece of course ;) )
Aliexpress has them in many sizes/forces, cheap too.
