let me talk about the tail wheel first. the picture i posted was the 1st modification. Before she ever even had a flight. the tiller arm that came with the kit would not reach the hole of the ball link, that is glued into the rudder. the ball link, consequently has fallen off the rudder, glue did not hold it from the factory. also, the rubber of the tail wheel fell off the hub when i first started the motor, so i had to replace the tail wheel. You can also see from the picture that i had to use piano wire, and bend it, to help it reach past the ball link. well now, i have changed the complete tail wheel assembly. it now has a white rose wheel with a new tiller arm.. the ball link has been glued in deeper, and now after 27 flights, no problem. i cannot stress enough how important the tail wheel is, especially if you land and take off on asphalt.

Damn... That does suck! can you post a pic with a close up of where the spinner sits?
(the whole spinner- not just the side)
yes, i sure will..
when i get home from work today i will do it.
i also want to post the picture of where i really drilled it.
the first picture was not where i drilled it, since it lines up with the center vertical line. i used the line to the right on the picture, or left on the airplane.
