Is there anyone that has done the conversion from tri gear to tail wheel that can tell me how it affected the weight and balance? I am currently sitting at 13.93 solo and 15 with a passneger. Will I have a more forward or aft C.G? I have a Series 7... I ordered the Matco 8" from Kitfox. It came with a 3 leaf spring set up. Looks super heavy duty. Do I really need all 3 springs or could I eliminate one and save some weight? I won't be flying on any rough stuff...
