The AircraftCaddy 4K Jr. electric aircraft tug was specially developed for moving small aircraft (with or without wheel pants) weighing up to 4,000 lbs. A heavy-duty steel framed and battery-operated tug, this caddy can be easily operated by one person.

It can move an aircraft at a careful speed range of 0-2 mph. Since it’s a walk-behind tug, the operator has better control when maneuvering the aircraft. It also has an ergonomic design and a quiet electric motor, which reduces the risks of injuries and hearing impairments. It’s much easier for the operator to have full concentration when moving the aircraft.

I’ve had my AircraftCaddy 4K Jr. for 3 years. It has been 100% reliable. Overall, I could not be more pleased with my caddy. It has taken all of the work out of moving my airplane. It does it quietly, unobtrusively, and easily. It's definitely one of the best purchases I’ve made since owning an airplane.

The AircraftCaddy works great! I'm really impressed by the quality and service I've received from DJ Products. Having lived seven years in Rochester, I'm very familiar with the Minnesota work ethic, so this doesn't surprise me at all! Thanks again!

I look forward to getting plane out of the hanger and putting away is easy! My only regret is that I wished I'd bought it years ago.

I love my AircraftCaddy. It really is an awesome machine. Thanks for getting my caddy built and shipped promptly. I'll recommend this unit to others.

This thing is worth every penny. I am the envy of the airport, and I even lent it to my hangar neighbor yesterday to get his twin in.

My husband loves his AircraftCaddy. He took his plane out of the hangar and pulled it to have gas put in. He said that it pulls his plane great and was very easy to use. I have to say, he wasn't too sure when he first got it because of the size and weight of the unit, but once he used it, he loved it. Thanks again for working with me to set him up with the AircraftCaddy unit.

This is an awesome product. I bought it about a year ago, and I love it. I've used a variety of things (tractors, vehicles, gas tuggers, etc.) in past, and the AircraftCaddy is perfect for moving my KingAir.

The unit was bigger than I thought it was going to be, but I love it! It's a nice industrial unit, not just a motor on a stick. I've been running my plane around with it for fun. Overall, I'm very happy with the product and service from DJ Products.

It's easy to refer people to you and your AircraftCaddy unit when you have such a great product.

We have been using the tug for about 8 months now, and it's absolutely awesome. I kick myself every time I use it for being so stupid using a tractor for 11 years!!!

Proven Success

The AircraftCaddy 4K. Jr. electric aircraft tug is the ideal solution to move small aircraft up to 4,000 lbs., either with or without wheel pants. One person can easily operate this heavy-duty steel framed battery-operated tug. It’s a cost-effective aircraft tow that is ideal when maneuvering aircraft in and out of a hangar.

Improved Safety & Efficiency

Designed for one person to maneuver an aircraft safely and easily, the Aircraft Caddy 4K Jr. can move an aircraft at a controlled speed range of 0-2 mph. The walk-behind operation allows for better control when maneuvering an aircraft. This reduces the risks of accidents and injury related to manually pushing aircraft. The Aircraft Caddy 4k Jr. has a smooth acceleration and braking system that outperforms rough gas-powered clutching systems on other tugs. It’s ergonomically designed and has a quiet electric motor, which reduces the risks of injuries and hearing impairments. This also makes it much easier for the operator to have full concentration when moving the aircraft.

Unparalleled Service & Support

Our sales and service teams offer great support before, during, and after your AircraftCaddy purchase. With easy order processing, optional virtual service training, a responsive parts and service department, and reasonable lead times, we try to simplify your buying process, making it easier for you.
