That's what I was thinking about as well, potentially with a combination of using large diameter wheels (at least on the nose.) It is interesting that this kit calls for .90-1.2 sized engines, yet doesn't have enough ground clearance for the prop in this size range when built as specified. 1.2 four strokes spin 15"-16" props which definitely wouldn't work in stock configuration. Had I noticed this before I assembled everything I would have built it is as a tail dragger instead...

Assuming you didn't build it yourself, do you recall where you bought the longer nose gear and what what model it was? This would save me some internet search time!

Thanks.
