Maybe I just need to change the front wheels from 8.5" to larger <grin>

Hi Ted !
92 " sounds like a lot for a 3 blade on the Moose -
is that the diameter that Hartzell recommends ?? I seem to recall that
the 2 blade paddle was 9 feet - 108". Would have thought that a 3 blade
would be a lot shorter ...
In any case, there wasn't a big problem with clearance with the 9 ft.
paddle - although I was a bit nervous about raising the tail
too far the first few times ! ;-) So you should be fine with a
larger tailwheel.

18" is for a Moose, 92" Hartzell 3-blade prop, stopped on the ground

gets going) and during any sort of a wheel landing. A hangar mate has

more).
Thanks,

Ted,
Rebel or a Moose? 18" sounds like a lot even for a Moose. Did you
measure it in a flight level attitude?
I have a Rebel 0320 with a Scott 3200 tailwheel and It handles very
well. I never even unwrapped the MAM tailwheel form its plastic.
