rigging tail gear

Any other ways to rig a workable tailgear on a SIG kadet sr.? The rudder is pre-hinged from th MFG.

Hi!
Use an all swiveling tail wheel!

RE: rigging tail gear

Should we assume that you mean tailwheel? Or, do you have something else in mind. If you mean tailwheel, then you will have to relocate the main gear to keep the tail on the ground since the Kadet Sr. is a trike-geared plane. If you want a tailwheel, I would suggest that it should be steerable so that you have more control. You can link the tailwheel strut to the rudder to achieve that.

Run a seperate linkage to the rudder servo. Nyrod works good.
