| Subject: | Re: Ragwing Ultra-Piet |
Wingnut- those look like a good place to start. I see one of the reviewers on
the Northern Tool site used them on his 1903 Oldsmobile runabout project, but
most of the other reviews are for things like garden carts and tool carts. The
thing to watch for is going to be side loading them, such as landing on asphalt
with some side drift or crabbing going on. The gross weight of the Ultra-Piet
is listed as 550 lbs, so sitting on a pair of the Northern Tool 300 lb rated
wheels sounds OK, but maybe marginal if you drop it in hard. If you have
a choice in the matter, you should operate the airplane off of grass till you
see how it's going to handle on these wheels. Grass and sod are much more forgiving
than hard surface.
