Hello Rex,

I have just found somewhere, here in Norway, where I can get smooth
tyres that are 18 x 5.4 - 8. That's a bit smaller and narrower than 20
x 7 - 8. Do you think it's close enough?

Exactly my feeling, Rex. The bounce has nothing to do with the
hardness of the tyres but rather from the increases AoA due to the main
hitting the ground first and inducing a nose-up as the tail goes down.
But, talking about pressure, my ChengShin tyres have "7 PSI OPERATING
PRESSURE" written on them. I think that's very little. I usually put 11
psi in them. I think they'll tolerate up to 20 psi, though.
Cheers,
Michel

I wonder how the pressure change going to altitude affects them. I once

Going to higher altitude is like putting a couple more PSI in the tires. If
you run the tires at 14 psi and the tires can handle 16 or 17 psi, don't
worry about them.

i am sorry to open this up again as I remember it being beat to death earlier but
I can not find it in the archives. I have one flaperon that has the white
plastic coating on it and for the life of me I can not get it off. I soaked rags
in paint thinner on the other one and on one side of this flaperon but it
seems to have no effect on the one side. I have done it for a month now and there
is hardly any efferct. does anyone have any other ideas? Is there a different
solvent to try? I hate to start to sand it off but I am running out of
ideas. thanks in advance.

Nitrogen molecules are large than oxygen - so there would be less pressure loss
via transmission of tube or tire.

Hi Tim, A little over a year ago I purchased a partly built 1992 M4/1200 Speedster
from a gentleman in California, He had been been working on it from time
to time but had never removed the white plastic from the flarerons (12 to 13 years!)
I spent about two full days getting it off and had the sore fingers for
a while to prove it. I found the only way was to heat it with a heat gun, and
peel it off a strip or a little bit at a time, very slow work but it did work,
with lots of patience and a few burned fingers the job got done. Lots of luck,
hope this is a help, Don

Be careful of solvents as the flaperon is glued together with foam
cores. There is a good solution, but I don't remember what it is.

Hi ! Clem,
my Model IV has a Maule SFSA tailwheel and I fitted =
the Homebuilders tailwheel real easy to that. I wouldn't recomend using =
the standard bearing that come with the wheel, They look like junk to me =
but the wheel is fine. It handles very much better than the Maule and is =
much quieter. To fit it is just a matter of using a 1/16" wall sleave. =
1/2" ID to suit axle or what I did was get differnt bearings and to me =
this was the better answer as I was not going to use the bearings that =
came with the wheel no matter what. You won't believe the difference =
this wheel makes.

I once had a Coke explode in a Herc at about 25,000ft. Scared crap outa us,
until we realized what it was. Sounded like a AAA shell going off.
BTW, all the tires in the military that I know of are filled with nitrogen.

I wonder how the pressure change going to altitude affects them. I once
near exploded a candy bar wrapper at 12500 msl. Not a problem with 6 ply,
but a thought on lawn tractor tires such as ours. Ron NB Ore
