Well had a good day flying at the field yesterday but broke my tail wheel. I just don't know that is one item that I am always fixing it is a painful. The it snapped right through at the pivot point of the tail wheel. Need to find a new one for 15 to 18 pound aeroplane. Still looking but not finding what I want yet.

I would highly recommend this option for both quality and durability - http://graphtechrcshop.com/

I am pretty sure I have a brand new one. It's yours if you want it. Can you post the measurements or a photo of yours so I can match it up?

Thanks for the reply looked at them l would buy them except that the ones I like start at 22 lbs it is the one with nice aluminum wheel holder, it might be to big and there 15 pond model I do not like had one it is useless. The tiller arm is useless it is not connected to the wheel shaft properly.

@stangflyer this is sketch of the tail wheel that broke the dimensions are all in inches and rounded off as close as needs to be. The thickness is accurately 3mm thick metric piece of aluminum. Thanks for taking a look please do not spend a lot of time looking for this.

I will dig the leaf out when I get home. Don't have to dig for it. Will post a photo here for you. If it will work and you want it, shoot me your address and I'll send it to ya.

Here ya go. Two to choose from. Personally, I think you'll want the one with the wheel. It actually came from a 50-60cc plane.
