Here's the collection of parts ready for fitting and welding. |
 |
The gear fixture is complete and the tubing is being fitted. The angles to the outside of the fixture are clamped to ensure that the axels are at one degree toe-out. The plans say .5 - 1 degree, so I went with the full one-degree. |
 |
Here's the gear back from the welder. |

Tailwheel assembly complete and installed. As of November 01, and almost 140 flight hours, the tailwheel has been trouble free. This is the second wheel on the aircraft. The first had a problem with the internal sealed bearing and burned up during taxi testing. |
