Good so far. I didn't claim that the castering would make the plane pefect, btw. Just more directionally stable while on the ground. > but if I try to use only one engine, the aircraft soon pitches up and > crashes with the front wheels still on the ground, the tail stuck on > the tarmac. Two engines work fine, though. But here you've lost me. Normally, the aircraft state with all three wheels on the ground is not called a "crash". :) Are you saying that there isn't enough power on one engine to get off the ground? (Might be true; I haven't tried.) That you can't get the tail wheel off the ground? (You realize that in a tail dragger, you push forward to lift the tail wheel, right?) I'm a little fuzzy on how the aircraft pitches up with all three wheels stuck to the ground -- if that's true, then it can't possibly be pitching unless the ground is. Andy -- Andrew J.
