Default RE: converting tricycle gear to taildragger?

You may want to look at the Worl Models Rambler 30 and/or 45. The basic difference between the 2 is the 45 has retracts. Both of these are classified as low wing trainer/sport type planes.

I have a Rambler 30 with an OS 52 4s in it. Flys great with the 52. I had (past tense [&o] ) a Rambler 45 with an OS 46 FX in it and the plane moved out quite well. I lost an arguement with a steam roller we had at the field.

This is my second Rambler 30. The initial one had an OS 46 FX in it - in fact that was the plane I learned to knife edge on.

Good luck with the Phoenix Scanner.
