[rebel-builders] Mainwheel Toe-in / Toe-out
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 6:15 pm
I had some trouble with this for a couple of years. Turns out that
Murphy changed the length of the drag strut by about 7/8" early on and
mine ended up with gear that had two different length drag struts. It
was pretty vicious in trying to push you off the runway to the left
every time. I finally figured it out and it tamed down to very easy to
handle indeed. Any toe out at all will make these planes squirrelly.

Is there any information regarding the proper toe-in / toe-out for the
rebel? Having a lot of control issues on take-off and landing, the aircraft
is very hard to keep straight.
