For more information on installation, maintenance, and flying with your new tailwheel, we suggest you check out our free Tailwheel Install Documents.

Want to Add a Tire? The Deluxe Tire and Lightweight Tire will fit perfectly.
New Purchase Option: Scratch n Dent is now available for white and black powder coating color options! When the tailwheels return from the powder coater, a few come back with less than pristine coats.
Functionally – the tailwheel works just as great, but there is a blemish or two. We now have the option for you to buy the Scratch n Dent versions of our tailwheel for $15 less. A brand new tailwheel for a discounted price!

Very nicely made and easy to fit. Much better wheel clearance and a better view over the nose.
Perfect fit on my my RV-4. Haven’t flown it yet but the rudder pressure required on taxi seems significantly less than the Vans tailwheel and somewhat better feeling of control
The tail wheel could be a little bit lighter....
Installed new fork with deluxe tire and steering link. All I can say is my RV7 handles so so much better now. I could not be more please with all of it. Thanks Blake for great customer support as well.
They’re perfect! Great quality and value.
