You ought to put the ramps on a servo, and hook it up to a third channel, so the gate can go up and down automaticly.
 
Thats a good idea. How are you connecting the trailer to the car?
 
you could always use a ball joint, then make something that the ball joint could sit in. That way you can connect and disconnect it.

Use like a tie rod for a revo and have a stud that the ball joint slips over. That way it can come off easy.

How did you attach the trailer points? Are you welding, or soldering, or... ?
