Greetings,
I purchased an RV-3B a few months ago, and I'm finally getting around to looking at the gear leg shimmy. I mounted a GoPro on one of the tie down attachments just to see what this actually looks like, then intentionally provoked it. Pretty interesting if you've never seen it.

BTW, this is a good angle to critique landings, so no videos of that
FWIW, I'm familiar with the shimmy causes and fixes, so this is mainly being posted for your entertainment. Don't say I never gave you anything
Cheers,
Rusty
