I converted a LT-40 to a tail dragger last winter. I used a Dubro tail wheel kit, medium sized, and did a pull pull system on the tail wheel steering. I think I used a Sullivan pull-pull set-up mounted to the rudder servo. The only other fuselage mod I made was put a piece of 1/4" plywood into the very aft of the fuselage to support the tail wheel assy. On this plywood I mounted 2 blind nuts to mount the tail wheel to the fuselage.

All worked well, ground handling was great and it flew OK. I put a used Saito 56 on it, and I've still got some issues to deal with it. I had 3 dead sticks in a row. On the last one I damaged the gear mounts, and had to re-do the lower fuselage and blind nuts there. Hopefully I'll be able to sort out the engine this spring. Daren
