So I started on the fuse. Got most of it together on Saturday afternoon/evning but then had to slow down to focus on the tail wheel. I spent all day Sunday fitting the retractable tail wheel assembly. Most of the time was spent re-rigging the steering arms, but I think what I have will work. This is how it ended up.
I used the same tail wheel, took a while to get it working, and found that if I used a separate arm to connect to the tail wheel cables, and link it to the rudder servo, I was able to get it to work better than trying to tie it directly to the rudder servo.
