Don't know that it must be a disc brake, but some form of brake is handy if you want to stop on hills. It stops the trailer trying to push or pull you downhill.
I think you could make one for a lot less too.
that's quite cool
I wonder what it's like when you're going up something quite steep though, i can see it being on your back unless you're bent over

I'd just buy a wheelbarrow and extend the handles.
Get an old rucksack hip belt, some 2" tape, and some fastex buckles and you're good to go

christ just take the jeep if you need something like that you have got to ask why? if its too heavy for you back get fit or cut the weight down.
Hello hikers
I made my own hiking trailer. You can use Erakarry various enviroments. Its very stabil and you can carry your equipments up to 35 kg. If you have 35 kg in trailer your shoulders weight is about 12 kg

Erakarry is very light on the knees and whole body, because most of the weight is on the wheel.

judging from my experience with a one-wheeled bike trailer i wonder how stable this will be in terms of balance.... . i think TWO wheels would be far better!
My thoughts are that towing it over a bouncy trail would be annoying - the trailer would be yanking and pulling at you. Particularly with such a small wheel. As I have serious back problems I'd worry about that. Maybe something that you used with your hands, with the option of dropping to a waist harness, would work better.
If you are doing something like desert walking it could be great, offering the potential to tow a lot more water than you can carry.
I used to bushwalk in australia. Not real outback stuff, but remote enough. A 3-day weekend pack would contain about 6l of water, plus wet food (ie, not dehydrated). Summer you'd need more.
For a similar trip in the UK I could get away with a litre (knowing I'd be able to refill and wouldn't need as much in the first place).
