Default Nose gear

Do they make main nose gears small enough to use on a Micro Telemaster? http://www.aerocraftrc.com/planepage.php?id=44

I don't know about your question but will state this for your info. If you intend to fly from a paved runway nose gear would be good. If however you are on grass nose gear not good especially for small plane. Your choice.

For a plane that small you could just make the nose gear yourself. Buy a piece of music wire and a wheel at the hobby shop and bend it with pliers. You could make the nose gear bearing (the part that holds the gear to the plane) from a piece of hard wood.

Dubro makes a 1/2A nose wheel.

I would say if you fly off grass, the grass would need to be REALLY short. Paved runway would be no problem.
