Steve and Lowell,
My wife tends to drift to the nasty side. I am not so lucky as you guys. She was sweet in the beginning but now.... Oh well,too old to change sooo I will just keep flying Whoohoo!
Steve, I don't have a bit of trouble with my Nanco tires The airplane tracks perfect. I wonder what the deal is with yours ? Maybe its my bush gear. Who knows but they do work fine and spinup is not an issue.Maybe I am just used to them after 2 years.
I have been playing with my tailwheel though. I took off the old hard Maule and installed the Matco 7 inch pneumatic. I like it so far BUT I snapped off one of the two tailspring positioning bolts(AN3) while making a turn on some rough grass at the end of a flight at an outlying airport. It snapped at the head. Glad I found it as the spring leaves had spread apart and that would have not been a pretty picture on landing !The airplane sits a bit higher off the ground higher now then it did with the Maule .I wonder if the mechanical leverage on those bolts is too high or just a bad bolt.
There is no room for AN4 bolts
