Tailwheel gear for QQ Yak 102"
Anyone changed their stock tailwheel gear for the QQ Yak 102" to a better type? Is there a good one in the market that will fit the three mounting holes under the fuse? Thanks guys

Re: Tailwheel gear for QQ Yak 102"
Yeah, I have... The stock one only lasted about 30 flights for me then broke
 So i bought a petesmodels tailwheel from troybuilt http://troybuiltmodels.com/newsite/p...tesmodels.html not really sure if its heavier or not but i does look cool and has lasted so far.. I got the biggest one btw.. |

Re: Tailwheel gear for QQ Yak 102"
Here yea go.. the tailwheel is really nice and curved which makes it look fancy.... It is seems to be lighter than the original but i dont have the weight on the original so i cant tell you that for sure..
The only thing is that it doesnt come with any holes drilled in it, for good reason, so you just have to match up the holes on your original gear... other wise its been pretty good so far and looks bad ass |

Re: Tailwheel gear for QQ Yak 102"
Hi Patrick, many thanks for the great pics! Can you take a closeup of the rudder steering arm, and how it is attached to the bottom of the rudder? Did the arm and springs come with Pete's tail gear? It looks pretty good and light. QQ charges $40 for the stock gear and they don't sell the parts separately. Looking at the poor quality of the stock gear, I don't mind paying a little more for Pete's
