Hi,
well today the Edge 540 munched a tailwheel. Well actually a welded on pivot bolt sheared during taxi and then proceeded to grind down the tailspring. The tailsping is a bent one (not straight). I don't see anyone making any types of them outside of API. And I know there are discussions about how hard they are to reach and their websites does not show bent ones. The fuselage was altered to accept the bent one so it is doubtful I could make a straight one work. Can the straight ones be modified? Or does anyone have a bent one?
can you make your own?
any other useful suggestions?
