RE: Goldberg nosegear used for tailwheel

Goldberg nosegear used for tailwheel

RE: New 81" P-47 ARF coming from Hangar 9

Chop the front of the firewall off and move it back the amount needed to make it fit. I did this for my SPE 40 and it was easy. Made a new beefier firewall and pinned it from the sides as well. Some...

RE: New 81" P-47 ARF coming from Hangar 9

Here's the finished louvres and exhaust outlet. I made the doors the same size as the FRP ones that came with the kit but opened them more. I looked at several pictures of flying Jugs and they are...

Here's a couple more. Sorry but the files are big so I can only upload two pics at a time. I took them on the highest resolution to try and show the detail.

RE: New 81" P-47 ARF coming from Hangar 9

Here's some more nonsense. Maybe I'll finish this thing up someday! Made the canopy/fuse top attach with latches rather than having to undo the screws everytime I fly. Pretty simple really, just...

RE: New 81" P-47 ARF coming from Hangar 9

Here's a couple of more pics. I will make some new louvre doors and a dummy exhaust pipe that will cover the holes on the side of the fuse.

RE: New 81" P-47 ARF coming from Hangar 9

It's been a while fellers but here's the latest. Decided to make some cooling ducts using the exhaust location on the fuse. I made a fiberglass "Y" pipe that will let the hot air out through the...

RE: New 81" P-47 ARF coming from Hangar 9

They will be operated by two 1/4" air cylinders. The tailgear operation is air operated too. The main gear inner doors and tailwheel gear doors will open from one valve and the main gear and tailgear...

RE: New 81" P-47 ARF coming from Hangar 9

Pretty easy to make really. Just took a little bit of think'in. I just couldn't find anything that would fit that well or wasn't $150. I'm just a poor lineman you know! I will use one of the original...

RE: New 81" P-47 ARF coming from Hangar 9

Just wrapped up my tailwheel. All I've got left is to do is solder the little washer in place(the one in the pic) and my steering arm on the top of the pivot. I made it from scratch with some parts...
