Tailwheel bracket mounting. Three steps to help assure strong and long living tailwheel bracket, even when flying in grass with crosswind landings.

Step 1 is to cut a 1/2 x 1 1/2 inch piece of thin carbon fiber sheet or 1/32 inch ply. Next file flat the bottom fuselage where the tailwheel bracket is mounted. Next is to CA the piece in place, then drill the two mounting holes for the wood (or sheet metal) screws to thread into.
