Default Phoenix VIII build
Couple questions for you all.

1. Main landing gear location for tail dragger. The plans show tricycle gear.. We are going to do a tail dragger. Any ideas how far ahead of the CG the gear should be located?

2. Aileron servos.. We have built in "barn door" style aileron's. Wondering about concerns as to using JR 3711 HV mini servos (86 in/oz torque) out there..one each aileron of course.

3. Engine... we have a Rossi 60 side exhaust. does anyone sell piston/rod/sleeve parts for the old Rossi's? Or should I just buy a new Nova Rossi Rex engine and start fresh?

Thanks for comments..
Randy
