Can anyone post a pic of a Heath tailwheel setup on a Taylorcraft? I need to source some springs to make the Heath work. The spring angle seems very steep compared to other tailwheel setups.

Re: Heath tailwheel
I don't have any pictures, but when I had my BL the springs for steering were kind of mushy. I had to be realy careful tixing in a cross wind. Tom -

Re: Heath tailwheel
I just had a regular tension springs, no chains or links. The springs just hooked to the rudder horn and tailwheel. TomComment
