My stock axle bent taxiing on a paved runway.

(The gear bent when I did something wrong!?!)

Anyway, the Dubro gear makes it fun to fly and quite durable. Couple weeks ago I got hit by an errand crosswind gust that kicked it from a nice smooth almost landing 12 inches off the deck to very short lived knife edge. Only damage was a broken prop.

Maybe Gray Beard can give me some tips on avoiding that crosswind issue?

As for the bigger rudder, it won't hold a knife edge well without it, and that slightly small rudder is the only issue. It tracks great, just falls off ever so slightly.
