I forgot to tell everyone about the tailwheel modification......
Instead of using that very wierd tail control design that comes with the kit, I installed a tailwheel kit from CB Tatone. It turned out very nice (Pix to follow) it uses a dual spring design to control tailwheel direction during taxi that is run off the rudder control horns. I installes a small 1/16 piece of ply to the bottom of the tail assembly and epoxied it on. Then I used 4-40 wood screws to attach the leaf spring tail support and mounted a Sullivan 1 1/2" tailwheel. I highly recommend it to everyone to use on their Patty's.

Engine break-in this week, and hopefully will maiden this Saturday!
