Thanks to all who responded.

Actually, I've been flying RC for quite a few years. I'm also an AMA club instructor.

The reason I want to do the conversion is that a friend and I are building identical trainer kits (with vastly different livery) with identical engines, and we're going to practice formation flying. I don't care whether it's tricycle or tail-dragger (although all of my models are tail-draggers). But my bud wants to make his a tail-dragger so . . .

I would assume that the main axle should be somewhere close to the leading edge; I had hoped there was some sort of formula.


Thanks again
Mike
