I don't do to many ARF's anymore, but because of these posted threads I got a pretty good idea what's going on with them and whats available. There's comedian's all over the place, no way out of it, I speak from experience on this. You have way over 500 hits on this thread. Someone is paying attention. Don't take off the wall comments personally, if you do, don't do build or assembly threads, its all part of it like it or not..I've been dragged throught the wringer a time or 2, I'm glad to see I'm not the only one....Keep this going, Walt
ps, I can personally vouch for Tbob, he's nutz

I sugest you throw the tail wheel in the trash and get one from aeroworks. They are very light and work great

Thanks for the advice. I haven't heard anything good about the PRC tail wheel.

I got the CF wheelpants from TBM yesterday. They look dumb with the CF gear so tomorrow I will turn them white . Much lighter than the stock but may not be after paint.

Tony its good to see you are looking to improve your products. With that attitude you and your company will do well. I have the 100cc kat and am pleased with the flight performance. As far as tail wheels I puffer the traditional 2 spring design. You guys should consider finishing of the motor box and providing aluminum spacer washers for different size engines. And dont bother plumbing the tank most people check them anyway. And many will mount tank in the tunnel
I didn't like the vent setup and needed longer line my tygon was larger diameter and would not fit through provided fueler. But like I said love the plane and would purchase from RC Pilot in the future
