Sig hog-bipe landing gear position...
I recently finished a Sig hog-bipe and have flown it a few times when I can get it off the ground without tipping over. I've flown a couple of other taildraggers and haven't experienced the same problem. A while back I remember seeing some recommendations for mving the lg foward to stop the problem but I can't find those comments. Also, when I've landed, guess I didn't get enough up elevator at the right time and it tipped over on its nose a couple of times. No doubt I need to practice more with it because it flies great. Did anyone deal with a tipping problem by moving the lg forward and, if so, how far? And if you moved the gear forward, did you replace the lg block and if you moved the new block forward how did you manage to keep the block parallel with the fuse bottom and avoid the upward curve of the cheeks?
Thanks...
