Here's a few pics of my home made tailwheel. I used a carbon fiber shaft that passes thru the fuse up thru the stab. The wire for the tail wheel passes thru it & isbent 90 degrees into the rudder. The bottom is bent to conform to any tail wheel you may have....Gene

Status: offline 		Another way to go is to put the tail wheel on a separate servo, connected to the rudder servo with a Y harness. Or, if your Kadet Sr. is a 3-channel plane, just put the tail wheel servo on channel four. A pull-pull setup is ideal for a tail wheel on its own servo, but you could use a pushrod as well.
