Description

The original release didn't include a functioning tail wheel, just a dragging piece. I think it needs a real wheel if your gonna be taking off from pavement and after a lot of testing with different style wheels this one seems to offer the least resistance on concrete. I gain full rudder command on the ground at about 15% motor throttle with a 2s 1000mah battery.
I would still like to see some kind of steering tail wheel in the future, But this one is good enough to get you in the air from the ground. The 2205 motor we used has more then enough power for this plane and if you are not careful it can get pretty hard to control during taxi, torque roll wants to push the plane to the left so you need to apply right rudder on the approach. I may add a spacer to tilt the motor 2 degrees to the right later to try to counter this effect.
