Tyre choices

Hi Lyndon

 

I imported these direct from Desser Tire and Rubber in the states, their service was great. The mains are Aero Classic brand, only for LSA and experimental and so can't be put on a certified GA plane. The Condor though is OK for that and came with a release form, not that it is needed for microlight here.

 

Like lots of things in life the mains aren't quite 21" but close enough.

 

Landed price with tubes was$900NZD, was a lot cheaper than trying to source them here.

 

Yep, probably cost me a few knots but didn't get this frame to go fast. Did add a few pounds but well, well, worth it for strip work. The aircraft has been landed on gravel bars and the like and I also gleaned a bit more prop clearance from the change.

The condors for the noseleg you can get here they are used on Cessnas...about 100 bucks well used to be and just redrill the axel hole 15mm down from the original holes. If you look on my build thread I think I did photos there
