Hi im converting my speed air into a tail dragger. I was hoping to use the main landing gear off my trainer but is this going to be strong enough? also any one with any help on this plese send it here.

Speed air,
1st make sure you get a good tail wheel that pivots and doesn't bind
2nd,
You need the aluminum part for the landing gear and it should be the size for your plane
Tape it in place with the wheels your going to use then balance the plane.
A lot of others told me I have mine mounted to far forward.
On my Avistar the front part of the strut gets wider at the top so I mounted mine with the axle just ahead of the leading edge and it lands like a dream
