Yes they do, but be sure you get light wheels.

One of the guys at our field regularly taxis and ROG with his Aerobird on our grass field. The little wheels that come with the plane bog down in the grass.

I just picked up some wheels, 1 3/4 inch I think. I am going to see if I can adapt them to the Aerobird. I may have to change the wire that makes up the landing gear as I think the hubs on the new wheels are larger than the wire on the aerobird gear.

Could be fun. I have never done a ROG launch. It will certainly eat up a lot of battery, but so what. New things to try!

Make the Aerobird fly!
