can this stand be used outside?

I use mine on my travel trailer. It has been outside for a year. There are the startings of rust at some of the bolt connections. I suspect that after a few years in the FL weather I will be buying a new rack...which I am good with.

The joints aren't sealed where it's bolted together. If it's left in the rain I would recommend occasionally removing a cap from each base leg to make sure water isn't trapped inside.

Yes. It can be used outside. It is small and you may want to consider a larger unit. If you do fly outside, please would watch out for: 1) Wind and 2) Range as you may fly out of good signal strength and not be able to control it.

I have left mine out for some time... This is a very substantial stand... I think it could handle anything you put it through... That said, everything lasts longer if you take good care of it, but I am not afraid of the weather on the stand... It is easy to assemble and take apart should you choose to... It is very heavy when it is assembled and will take two people to move it, but one person can put it together or take it apart... Merry Christmas

yes it can be use outdoor. But keep in mind its rust resistance and not rust prove. So, eventually after years of usage it will rust.

I would think so, as long as it did not hang over too much. Stand is strong, but slippery, will catch in concrete seams.

I think the manual says it can be used outside. We have only used ours inside.

No. I believe it can only be used outside. I've only used it outside and it works great.

It is made of an unfinished wood. To use it outside you would have to put some kind of finish on it to protect it from the elements. Other than that it would work.

It can be used outdoors as long as you protect it from direct exposure to rain, snow, etc. I have used one successfully outdoors mounted under the overhang on a house.

I have kept mine indoors since I bought it. The stand is painted black with ornamental flowers of other colors. I assume the paint is rust resistant. Since it's make of iron, I conclude that it would eventually rust if left outdoors. How quickly...I don't know.

Only if it is not very windy and with a large extension or a battery pack. The stands are quite soft and will not withstand a hard gust of air.

Yes, if the ground it's on is stable. Since it's wood I wouldn't recommend using it in inclement weather.

Yes, this can be used outdoors. I add sand bags to each side for more support.

No I don't think using it outside is wise. Unless being used in a covered area outside where water will not be able to get into the top area. Top is open - apart from wood framing, the cover is plastic so don't really think it will stand up much to sun, rain and wind elements.

It is says it can be used outdoors . I would use it in a green house. However, I haven't had mine a year and the bottom shelf rusted out. Next time I will spray it with Rustoleum before I put it out on my porch. Wouldn't buy this one again.

Yes it can be used outside. As long as you link all three on the same strip.

It can be used outside. But it's not as visible than when you use it indoors
