My original tailspring was a quarter inch thick piece of spring steel that I
believe was 1.5" wide. It wasn't stiff enough, and
I did not use any of the existing tail spring, the entire unit is built of
fiberglass. It is bolted to the fuselage just like the metal spring was, in
exactly the same place. I just had to use bolts that were a little longer.
I would not use Carbon Fiber as it is more brittle and what you want
Do they have a website?
