Hi everyone.
Well I flew the Goshawk maiden. Unfortunately my wheel wont hold air. I resealed the hub assembly a few times and I think the central Oring is likely sealing but it might be leaking at the tire edge...
It holds air for a few hours, I think. But also was flat after flight; wondering if laeking at tire/side of hub interface. I cleaned all the edges of the tire etc for a better seal...still flat.
I wish I could just have a working system or solid tire.
Any other ideas?
I am trying to contact SM for a trial of a replacement O ring/tire.
I also am not sure where and how quickly I can get the tire from another source?
Thanks for any help.

Take the wheel apart and pack it with dense foam and then reassemble. The wheels should stay firm enough to use.
