I think you have to contact Van's for that number.
Dave,Don't want opinions. I’m wondering if there is a table of the number of each RV model that are built with a nose vs tail wheel. Maybe the number of kits sold and also the number flying. Just curious.
Dave,
I can assure you with some certainty that the RV-3 and RV-4 are 100% Tail Dragger...
Models designed afterward were well, after thoughts...

Except for the -9 and -14 on which the tailwheel was the later model to appear.
Steve,
I was being a bit facetious in that I when I purchased my RV4 tail kit, there were only 2 kits, the 3 and 4. Every design afterward, (RV-6-14) were an afterthought.
When the RV6 was announced, several "old school" builders (like myself) made offhand comments in the RV8R newsletter. One I remember was "First a side by side, next thing, Van will bolt on a nose wheel!"
And he did...
