Cheers,
unfortunately the space provided in the wing forward of the center spar, doesn't give much for extra forward rake part of the reason I had to use a smaller wheel because I didn't have much extra space I might be able to shim the gear a tiny bit but I really havent had to much trouble with tip overs on my other planes at the local club the runway is Astro turf if it was grass it might be of more concern.

as it is right now the plane balanced is right around 10 lbs which is a little brickish should be right about 10 when I am finished
