RichD,

I notice that you also use the Dubro #789 main landing gear http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXNM65&P=ML . I do too. Highly recommended. I've converted a few LT-40's to taildraggers myself.

ALso, perhaps it might be a good idea to screw the landing gear (if you use the Dubro) in with nylon bolts. They'll shear off if the landing is too rough, and save the bottom of the fuse.
