    Default Acme Stinger Tailwheel

    Both our Sport Cubs have the Baby Bushwheel and at our home airport KSMX, they have more than a tendency to shimmy.
    Our runway is grooved so even if you land straight it can upset it enough to shimmy.
    This arrived today:

    It is heavy weighing 3 pounds more than our two heavy duty spring set up.

    It sits taller almost 3 inches. Ground handling was really good so we test flew.
    Scott tried his darndest in a gusty crosswind to make it shimmy and only once could he get a slight left right and then it tracked true.
