Default RE: Landing Gear Design
Valliant allies,

I remember a formula from a magazine years ago that was for the main gear on a monoplane taildragger to be 15 - 17 degrees ahead of the TRUE cg - not the balance point. It was probably in Chuck Cunningham's RCM column. He always had something good to share.
