Default Build a Miss Ashley - Revisited

The gear length should be between 1 3/4" to 2 1/4" (to the axel). Start at 2 1/4" and verify that there is approximately 1/2" prop clearance when the wing is at zero incidence.

On the second model the wheels did not have bearings. The axels were moved forward and the gear were shortened to reduce nose over during a power push. Full up elevator was required during this style of launch.
