Default RE: HELP LEARNING TO TAKE OFF WITH TAILDRAGGER???

One thing that helped me a lot is to put a little "toe in" in the main gear. This helps the plane self correct a bit as it goes down the runway.

"Toe in" means that you twist each main gear axle so that the front of each wheel points toward the centerline by a couple of degrees or so.
