Hi Ray. The tail wheel setup didn't work for me, though there wasn't anything wrong with it. I don't think the filler block was 12" off the ground, but it was higher than many of the tail draggers I saw at the Gathering this fall. I sold the tail wheel setup to Ed Blocher in Florida. I seem to remember he reworked it somehow.
I fly off 2000 feet of grass with children and dogs on the runway. Over the nose taxi visibility is as important to me as is the propeller. It seemed to taxi well and I lifted the tail in fast taxi a few times before I converted to Diehl trigear.

It seems to raise the aft end by about 12 inches. I plan to do the same on my KR2S. I would like to know if this gives a good view over the instrument panel and are there any adverse effects on the amount of weight on the tail wheel? Ray Goree 817-795-4779
