I found and used and old set of Phoenix gear hinges for the tail wheel. I made a slot that fits two planks of balsa sheeting that I first glued to the hinges. Then I fitted to the plane and checked for easy movement. I won't glue these in till I fiberglass the fuselage. I'm having trouble with my electric retracts. I sent them back for repair. Funny how just cycling them for trial / fit purposes could cause them to go bad. Maybe I just bought a lemon. We'll see. Now I'm going to work on decorative exhaust stacks and start building the flaps.
