I'm New Here
Hey guys, I have a 2010 RV 9. I'd like to replace my stock tail wheel with something better suited for rough terrain. Do any of you have any recommendations? What does the stock unit weigh? Thanks!
I installed the Aviation Products Tailwheel. I have 50 hrs and no issues. Very reasonably priced. http://www.apitailwheels.com/contact/contact.html
I just got an RV6, it has the old original vans tailwheel with the swivel bolt clearing the ground about 1.5" in front of the wheel, makes me very uneasy that it could snag and ruin the rear of my plane I have been reading all the old post about the optional styles, Are you satisfied with this one? Which model/style number is this one? I got on their web site and they have several models to choose from, some 10 degree some 20 degree, what size wheel does yours have? It wouldnt hurt my feelings to see a little more above the cowling while taxi-ing and looks like it would raise the tail an inch or so. Thanks in advance for your opinion and info,, Mark
