Hello,
I joined this forum few months ago and am learning a lot about building a biplane. I recently acquired an unfinished Pitts project. I have the API tailwheel assembly (API Part # 6120) and plan to buy the API round tail spring to attach tailwheel to the fuselage. Any help/guidance/suggestions to the following questions would be much appreciated.
1) which round tail spring should I get) 3/4” to 5/8” or 7/8” to 5/8”?
2) any pictures or suggestions about attaching the tail spring to the fuselage.
thanks a bunch.
