Looking for some tips on swapping from Tricycle to TW during construction. I have built the empennage and halfway through my wings on a Slow Build 8A. Not started on the Fuse yet, so the work required is mostly reading the plans and sourcing the correct parts.
I have all the parts to build the A version, including fwf, so I am hoping to use as much as possible of those to minimize buying additional parts.
Has anyone installed an A motor mount on a straight 8? Aside from a bit of extra weight, are there other drawbacks?
I looked at the SkyDesign gear legs instead of the stock gear, but havent found much in terms of reviews or pireps. If anyone has them on a flying aircraft, it would be interesting to hear how it‘s working out.
Any other suppliers I should look into for this conversion instead of going for stock parts? TIA
