Default RE: new Arf Boomerang 14lb thrust

John,

Did you have to move the mounting blocks for the main retract closer to the fuse? The one I am having built sat tail end up and nose down with the wheels. I am using BVM 2 5/8" wheels on the mains and 2 1/4" on the nose. By moving the main retracts closer in we were able to shorten the wire struts and keep the plane level when sitting on the ground. Does yours sit level or nose down to the gound? If nose down, how did it handle on the ground and how was the takeoff? If all goes well, I should be able to fly it this weekend.
