Anyone have an alternative to the foamy wheels that came with this bird -- they seem too insignificant for an 18-19 pound airplane.
My Eagle is hanging from the wall, and therefore no problems with the foam wheels. I think if you rest the Eagle on a stand or hang it, you won't have any problems. It takes a while to go flat. I looked into chaning them out, but could not find a wheel that would fit inside the wheel pant with the proper spacing. The Sullivan and Dubro Wheels are wider then the provided foam wheel.

Tail Time, everything on my Eagle fitted just fine. I absolutely love this plane. It is a great flying Bipe with no bad habits. KE is awesome. I like it much better then my Pitts. Not usre why, but it just flies better.
