My hog with as a tail dragger flys great and you have to work at it to nose it over. I put the landing gear on the fusalage in front of the wing saddle. used an aluminum gear. This puts the gear a little more ahead of the wing so it is more stable on the ground.I mounted the gear backwards so the axles were about 1" ahead of the wing. This makes it handles good on the ground with no tendancy to nose over.
