Status: online 		what size is recommended for the 28% edge the 15 or the 22 #? is that weight rating for the entire aircraft or for whats on the tailwheel alone?

If you don't go down the route with Tom - go for the #22 lb tailwheel from GraphTec. I've used them before and very happy with results.

Status: offline 		I agree with the 22# unit from Graphtech, have 3 of them in use at the moment on 3 WH birds. Have worked PERFECT for me!!! Dont like the springs that come with most and this is no difference with the graphtech piece either. I usually find different springs at the hardware store or such that already have a loop at the end or such.
